Emma would be pleased, I think, to see her voice - and three of my photographs of her - out in The Lancet this week. This was a big concern for her: trying to make people understand how it feels to live with kidney disease and its daily challenges. www.rolandbleiker.com/news/https/w...
Check it out: following her amazing book on Affective Imagery, which we recently discussed in our @visualpolitics.bsky.social Program, here is @mtrotem.bsky.social’s new article in IPS.
Big thanks to my wonderful co-conspirators Zoltan Endre & Sophie Harman & Lancet editor Joanna Palmer. Next step is to introduce, edit and annotate all of Emma’s 19 Dialysis Day blogs - written over a decade - and publish them as a book that draws awareness to kidney disease.
If you are in Stockholm next week and up for this and, especially, for a chat over drinks, then please come along to my little ‘installation’ gig at the Swedish Defence University. Details here (all welcome but registration required): www.rolandbleiker.com/news/upcomin...
