Glass organs

2025

This might be oversimplifying why I make glass organs, but I made a uterus and a stomach because they’re the organs that impact my life the most. I’ve never had a comprehensive understanding of them and why I’ve always had problems with them.

I haven’t had a real period since I was eighteen. Before that, I lost my period because of intense dance training, and now I have to visit specialists/physical therapists to enter my own body. And of course, politicians want a say in what I do with my uterus too.

I’ve had Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder since I was eight years old, but I’ve also struggled with IBS for years without knowing that always needing to know where a bathroom was isn’t normal.

To put it simply, I made glass organs because I don’t understand my body nor glass. The subject mystifies me, and so does the medium; a match made in heaven.
