  • Resumen

  • In this episode, we talk to Charlie Fitz. Charlie is a UK-based sick and disabled artist, arts practitioner, writer, co-director of the remote artist studio TRIAD³ c.i.c and medical humanities postgraduate at Birkbeck, where she is a recipient of the Wellcome Trust studentship. 

    Since becoming sick, Fitz has turned to her art practice as a meditative process, a form of disability activism, and as a means to understand and reclaim her experiences of illness and trauma. 

    In today’s episode, we talk about Charlie’s experience with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, her time in the hospital, and having to outsource care and fundraise for surgery. We also discuss mental health, interdependence, collective care and her art practice. 

    Content warning: We talk about death and suicide in this episode. If you or a loved one is experiencing suicidal ideation or needs support, please reach out. Help is here for you.
