Description / Synopsis
This research began with the body, however nobody (no-body) is the location where this practice presently exists. To be clear, this research is developed through symptoms that develop within a body and then exist outside of a body as material. Currently, these symptom-materials are formed by the conditions of Menopause. Formerly, these symptom-materials were determined by annals of failing fertility. |
