This exhibition continues to end of October to coincide with Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

This series of documentary photographs tracks the story of years of treatment and the psychological transformation, as well as the emotional and physical highs and lows, following a breast cancer diagnosis.
The work is playful, humorous, tragic, and head-on; deliberately moving beyond the medicalised and objectified body.
