The aim of this research project has been to address the lack of sufficient and supportive information on the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle with a focus on premenstrual symptoms and the effects they have on the daily lives of people who experience them.
The outcome aim was to design a wearable artefact, presented in a performance piece in the hope to raise awareness of the complexity of the topic and redefine social expectations of people with a menstrual cycle.
Premenstrual Stress.
Fueled by a profound inspiration drawn from female biology, I am dedicated to shining a spotlight on the importance of women’s health and well-being. I believe there’s a crucial need for increased attention and research in this domain, and through my work, I aim to contribute to a deeper understanding and appreciation for the unique aspects of women’s biology, using knitting as an extenstion of the psyche.
