KaleidoSkeleton Ti (2020) Project
This project is a multi-dimensional artivist act traversing radically inclusive politics, and articulating life-long pain, that subverts the racism, ableism, sexism and classism within the field of medical sciences.
An audio-visual generative, and new media, art work using the artists personal medical archive and data.
KaleidoSkeleton Ti : 1 (2020) is a public testimony of private pain and a site of digital creative resistance against intersectional oppression - subverting the ‘diagnostic gaze’. Using biodata, programming, and personal medical archives, and an unapologetic embodiment of the physical, psychological, cognitive, cultural, spiritual, sensorial, medical and societal pain that manifests in the lives of the hidden, unheard and the unrepresented.
KaleidoSkeleton Ti : 2 (2020) manifests as a monochromatic, subversive x-ray-based, generative audio-visual work. This builds upon the key themes and research for ‘KaleidoSkeleton Ti : 1’, such as lifelong lived experience, the centring of agency, and subverting the medical model of disability. This then moves beyond aesthetic translations of pain, and brings in the aural, and the visual vestibular - an audio-visual embodied stim.
KaleidoSkeleton Ti : The Desi Cyborg (2020) builds upon its kin's ‘KaleidoSkeleton Ti : 1 and 2’ as a translation of multidimensional pain that exhibits as a colour-expressive, x-ray subversive and generative audio-visual stim.
