Resident planning

The period of residency is 28 days, which is coincidentally a full menstrual cycle. I will write essays such as weekly diaries, treating myself as an experimental body and observing what kind of revelation my body will have when placed in the residency environment. Continuing the style of previous works, there will be creative essays that tend to be fantastical and intimate, as well as critical essays that focus on menstrual-related issues. The results of the residency program "Waiting for the Menstruation: Dissent, Co-creation, and Wetness" will also be dynamically reflected in the prose.
