Crimson Waves art and poetry
Why are Irish women and men often too shy to talk about periods?
For nine months, I had conversations with people aged 22-87 that revealed myriad reasons, including
- family dynamics
- the church’s influence
- a lack of biological education
There was a lot of interest in the project, so I extended it and put out an open call for art and writing.
Over 80 people responded. I curated the exhibition at CB1 community art space, Limerick.
