Through a low hum, a strong gale I am calling into question what it means to create a body of work that outwardly rejects the idea that to make valuable art, I must ‘suffer for it’. The process of creating the exhibition included working with others to help materialize my ideas, and building on tasks—primarily breathing—that I can perform from bed when I’m unwell. This body of work grapple with my experience of chronic illness and pain. My material explorations aim to make visible the invisible—documenting the physical limitations that are a result of my pain, rather than searching for evidence of its existence.
