 Ink Jet on Luster/Semi-Gloss. “The ’bloody red curse’ of the uterine lining shedding” playfully addresses how society treats menstruation. Drawing on Kristeva’s theory of abjection, something completely ordinary becomes scandalous once it leaves the body. By embracing the so-called “curse”, I play with the messy, taboo, and awkward side of periods through photography. Reminding us that the true horror here is how squeamish society has conditioned us to be. By becoming my period and over-emphasizing how periods are portrayed, I critique the visual language of film, TV, and media. The ’bloody red curse’ of the uterine lining shedding 1.
