Based in Boston, Massachusetts, Matisse holds a Masters of Gender and Cultural Studies from Simmons University. They offer individual and institutional gender consultation services;the former being a personalized session to help a person understand gender and their place in it better, and the latter consisting of inclusivity consulting and cultural competency training concerning transgender, nonbinary, gender-nonconforming individuals, and the LGBTQIA+ community. Beyond this, they are a self-taught multi-media artist who flits between inky abstract art, drag, photography, videography, weaving on a loom, and most recently learning to create chainmaille jewelry.
