“I loved being a part of something so creative and unique. This form of art really is an amazing therapy which I believe helped myself and everyone involved understand and process what they are going through a little more.”

Thank you Sophie! 💛

Today we met our second group of women* who came forward to take part in the next phase of our #Endomorphosis project for the first time. Next week we’ll be painting and celebrating our bodies in a day of full body painting. March is Endometriosis Action Month and it was wonderful to meet even more women who want to raise awareness and be painted this month 💛

“I am so proud to have been a part of this vibrant and impactful project, along with nine other incredibly brave ladies and the talented artists involved.

Thank you Cabasa! You gave a group of girls a moment to feel connected to themselves and their bodies again, while we so often feel betrayed by them. To share stories and experiences together... to feel heard, normal, to laugh with one another and to feel less alone...To feel some sense of our stolen and forgotten pre-diagnosis identities shining through to the surface whilst painting over our often torn, scarred and silenced canvases.”

Thank you Janie 💛

Meet Lizzie Rigby, one of our lead artists for our next phase of Endomorphosis. Lizzie is a wonderful local artist who we’ve been working with on body painting (and many other projects) for the past few years.

Lizzie has been with us since the start of our body painting journey and many of the images you have been seeing are her designs (as well as other lovely artists painting them alongside). Lizzie also did some research for us around global body paint traditions which you can find on the Metamorphosis project page on our website [link in bio]

We’re excited to be working with Lizzie on this next part of the project.

@lizardriggers

Here’s just some of Lizzie’s painting and design work.

“I decided to get involved with Endomorphosis for a couple of reasons, one being to continue raising awareness for Endometriosis and the daily struggles that I personally face.

The second reason is that I wanted an opportunity to connect with other 'Endo warriors' and to be able to feel some sense of liberation from the condition.

The whole experience was raw, at times quite emotional but overall it was amazing.

There were some tears shared but also a lot of giggles when it came to stripping off and baring (nearly) all. I felt a sense of power too, it was an incredible experience that I'll never forget."

Thank you Hannah 💛

This year we are working with even more artists to paint our new group of 20 women at the end of this month, we’ve also been exploring the impact body painting can have on them as artists, like one of our lead artists on this next phase of the project (and amazing producer) Kate:

“I didn't expect painting a person to be such an empowering experience for me. We spent hours painting, chatting and getting to know them, although it felt like just a few minutes! I'm so thankful to have been part of her experience and feel that we shared a joyful, peaceful and loving moment together that will stay with me for a long time ”

- Kate Rothery.

We’ll be sharing some more stories from our artists over the month.

“Looking at these photos now, I am so proud of myself, and the other wonderful participants, for being so courageous and so open. I can look at my body and feel validated and confident, and the fact that I could still smile and have a good time when I was so unwell allowed me to acknowledge the strength and resilience I possess. I feel beautiful, for perhaps the first time in my life.”

Thank you Lakshmi 💛

We’ll be sharing more of Lakshmi’s thoughts over the weekend around the project and her experience.
