'Ahead of the Curve'
Still in its planning and design phase, 'Ahead of the Curve’ will draw upon the experiences of people - such as myself - living with Scoliosis ( a curvature of the spine ), their families and those professionals involved in the research, everyday care and treatment of the condition. The aim is to combine Art, Photography and Narrative in such as way as to contribute to our broader understanding of Scoliosis and demystify the many conflicting perceptions of the condition. My ambition for this Work is that it will inform, enlighten and empower those recently diagnosed with the condition, those awaiting or considering surgery, and those for whom surgery is not a viable option.
This project will be largely participant - led so more detail to follow. I envisage using a methodology based upon powerful imagery incorporating a range of media coupled with an engaging narrative to shed a positive image of living with Scoliosis in all its pre /post and non-operative contexts.
I’m very fortunate to benefit from the support of the Musculoskeletal and Spinal Team at Northumbria NHS Foundation Trust.
Shown here are examples of Conceptual Artwork created as part of the ongoing scoping exercise for the project. They appear for illustrative purposes only. However, the idea of collaborating with performers and sports people already known to me (some having scoliosis) is something I'd like to explore further as part of the consultation process.
