You are constantly balancing on a tightrope.
A thin line between protecting yourself, armouring up, and having to be vulnerable in great detail just to get the support you need.
Doctors, therapists. The DWP. The council. Family and friends, even neighbours.
Sometimes strangers too.
If you haven’t had experience of these intensely humbling moments you simply have no idea how it feels to be disabled, chronically ill, and even neurodivergent.
My Reclaim: Invisible Bodies project is not about languishing in our difficulties. But neither is it about suppressing or denying them, because these daily lived challenges are often the biggest part of WHY we struggle so much.
Finding the safe spaces to express our challenges is SO hard. I *know* you’ve sat in a doctor’s office, a therapist’s or similar and been made to feel as tiny as an ant’s 💩. And I know this has not happened just once but many times, in myriad ways.
Through my RECLAIM installation. I want to tell our story. YOUR story, in all of its glory. Mine will go into it too naturally!
The installation as a whole is about transmutation, honouring and bring honoured in our multidimensionality, our FULLNESS of self and soul.
But I want to start with our s**tty parts. Our disappointment and rage and frustration and exhaustion. Not just at our own bodies/minds, but at the systems and culture which perpetuate our lack of value as disabled people.
Because you KNOW in your heart and gut that YOUR BODY / MIND is not the issue, and never was. Being disabled does not make you any less valuable within our society. It shouldn’t.
So: I want to hear your rage stories. I want to hear your frustrating and disappointing interactions. What has made you feel LESS THAN? Who has made you feel that way, within which systems? Within which part of our culture?
To make this entirely safe for you, please comment RECLAIM below and I will reach out to you personally, to be a loving and listening ear to your story.
Because we all need to be heard, to FEEL heard. Truly.
Your story will also fuel me energetically in creating the first piece of the RECLAIM installation - to begin the process of transmutation for us all. 🔥💖🙏
