In this thesis project, I make my way around and through the questions of chronic illness, self-worth, productivity and a changing relationship to time that arise in this dual viral experience - situating the personal within a larger social/political context.http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/chronic illnesstimepinhole photographytextembroideryradical self-careArt PracticeBook and PaperCreative WritingFiber, Textile, and Weaving ArtsInterdisciplinary Arts and Mediathesishttps://orcid.org/0000-0001-7743-5019
