'Notes to Other Selves' exists as a multi-authored text on Google Docs built from an accumulation of notes-to-self and footnotes on notes. Growing over several months in the time of COVID-19 and from conversations that took place on Zoom in late Summer, Autumn and Winter 2020, the document acts as a shared record and prismatic refraction of embodiment, sickness, diagnosis, crip-time, grief and queerness. Taking up the theme of care, the group have created a support structure, of which the text is a byproduct.
Psychic Refuge is an ongoing R&D; project exploring mental health, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) or trauma and its treatment in Palestine.
Research as part of a residency at Rupert, Vilnius, in January 2020 exploring contemporary mental health and treatment in Lithuania, and the history of psychiatry in relation to political oppression and intergenerational trauma. Shot at the The Museum of Occupations and Freedom Fights (KGB Museum), Vilnius.
A screening and discussion took place at Editorial, Vilnius 28th Jan 2020.
