Leavers assembly by Tesha Murrain
Photography
Artist statement: I have a diagnosis of Migraine with Aura. It is an incurable, misunderstood, misdiagnosed and underfunded condition whilst being incredibly disabling.
The words written on the sharps box detail treatments I have tried, unhelpful things people have said to me and my support tools.
The backdrop is the last school I ever worked at before my condition became too debilitating and I had to give up work. I took the image at night as it stands as a double entendre- The darkness of mental Ill health as well as darkness being a safe haven to support my sensory needs.
