Heidi Holmes: Control yourself (even if you feel dead inside, hurt and barren)

Kings ARI, Melbourne, 2016.

 

“Control

Control yourself

Calm yourself

Want it

Not too much though

Make sure you do all the things

Don’t think about the things too much

Empty nest ness

You’re still young

You might be too old

Endo hurt, endless hurt

Geriatric-stuck-ovary, sad-stuck-uterus, no-tubes

Get stuck into life

Stuck in life

Stuck

Stuck

Control yourself (even if you feel dead inside, hurt and barren) is an exploration of the artist’s experience of her body and mind within the ongoing process of baby-making, failing fertility and the resulting process of In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF).” *
