This, our annual Medical Humanities talk, will be unlike any "talk" we have had! Ms. March will blow you away with her paintings (done with her body), poetry and dance that attempts to express the inexpressible: the pain associated with endometriosis. The event, co-sponsored by the College of Charleston Departments of English and Dance, will also feature five dancers from the College. Our historic space, Randolph Hall, will lend gravitas to bodies that menstruate- bodies too long neglected by medicine, history, and the media.

Ms. March's performance will be followed by a Q&A, facilitated by Kathleen Béres Rogers, the director of the program in Medical Humanities at the College.

Ms. March is a Ph.D. candidate at Central Saint Martins (University of the Arts London). Her research is exploring female pain specifically the lived body experiences of women who suffer from endometriosis, through an embodied creative practice. Her doctoral project is called FEEL HER PAIN. For more on her research please check out her website devoted to her artistic research.
