Jo Spence






- The British Cindy Sherman - as many say


I wasn't sure if I should post these images... a lot of emotion coming from them. It is so overwhelming how she frames her disease and how she explores her condition. It's like a contrast between her physical appearance and her mental state. She is portraying her battle with the cancer in a heroic way. She is not giving up. How overwhelming...

Looking at this series can make you feel  quite uncomfortable. I feel like it's her intimacy and I should not look at them but at the same time the images are exposed for us, the viewers.
