this is our story to tell.
NOT YOUR BODY explores menstrual disorders through the voices and experiences of TALIA MOORE, NABBY KAUR, GABI P, and YEL RENNALS through food symbolism, to provide a visual representation of what it feels like for people who bleed, living in a world where our voices are often silenced or ignored within the healthcare system.
NOT YOUR BODY acts as a subtle but not so subtle 'fuck you' to the current healthcare system, urging those to claim ownership over their bodies and long term health by asking questions, staying curious, and listening to their bodies.
