Sitting up to watch my own colonoscopies was the inspiration for the text Belly.

As a patient, I don’t have access to the video footage of my own colonoscopies, instead we are given a lime green sheet of paper with stills from the internal video. These photos are to identify the areas of ‘hurts’; for me these are areas of blood, pustule and and creamy sections of the large intestine. 

360 provides a speculative space to engage with the text of Belly and position you, the audience, in the driving seat for this journey through the muscular interior walls.

Sick Woman Theory, by Johanna Hedva, “redefines existence in a body as something that is primarily and always vulnerable, following from Judith Butler’s work on precarity and resistance”. Hedva describes the visible and invisible and how both can be political. This is a powerful way to engage with making art about illness - making a personal experience, public.
