The Spirit is Willing, and the Flesh is Okay, I guess

Thinking about chronic illness, bodies, clothing, agency, and the bubonic plague

This piece was made with the idea of making a chronic illness (that I'm not gonna name. No offense, but I don't know you like that) and turning it into something that can be removed.

After making it, I realized that I also made it into something that I could choose to put on, reclaimation of identity and all that shit.

Not sure exactly what that would mean, but it's kinda interesting (to me...)
