luteal

2024

Luteal investigates myths and shame surrounding menstrual cycles. It explores feelings of frustration, aggression, and hopelessness. Through drawing, photography, and interviews I dive into the woods, both literally and metaphorically. Seeking solace in a mystical world where reality and myth intertwine, I question societal narratives. Through conversations with friends, I dissect the impact of myths and taboos in the absence of proper education from schools and medical professionals. This series explores a space of conflicted feelings due to centuries of stigmatization, aiming to provide comfort to the questioning and awareness to the curious
