In attempts to finally make work about my illness, Cystic Fibrosis, I use Bob Flanagan; his work, his life, and his death; as a sort of vessel through which I can explain my relationship to illness and performance. This performative lecture explores ideas of invisible disability, masochism, and performing with an ill body.
This performance contains extracts from the film Sick: The Life and Death of Bob Flanagan, Supermasochist which contains imagery that some people may find challenging and potentially discomforting.
