This body of work enlists the humble tampon as a messenger of protest against the growing threats to bodily autonomy, abortion, and individual rights in the U.S.
It serves to elevate and amplify women’s voices in the discourse, demanding that we take a stand to ensure that decisions about one's body remain a personal right for everyone.
