FROM THE INSIDE OUT

This is a project that documents the major cause of my monthly pain: my menstruation. Through this project, I try to transform my pain into art while dealing with empowerment and frustration. It started in 2011 and it’s still in development as I continue to closely document the fascinating changes that occur in my body and how it reacts to different circumstances and treatments. I document my menstruation through images and sounds from my own body before, during and after my menstruation.
The project aims to increase the awareness towards the beauties and complexities of a monthly cycle that most women go through. It also manifests that the flow of my menstruation should be smoothly coming out from “the inside of my body, out,” in addition to  a natural dialogue that should happen from the inside of women’s body to the outside world.
