COW

How do you accept the body that society has told you to hate?

This show is part of Sight Unseen, a season curated by Isabel Adomakoh Young for The Takeover.

"I have to properly rationalise that, yes, my stomach is a part of me. As hard as I try, as much as I pray, I can’t wish it away."

 

 

What begins as a bittersweet love story, Cow soon learns sometimes you just can’t control where the myth takes you.

These things she knows to be true: she is fat, she is a woman, she is trans, she needs sex, she hates her body, men don’t like her.

She is desperate to find the answer to important questions: How do you love moderately? How do you accept the body society has told you to hate? What happens when your world gets turned upside down? How do you recover from rock bottom?
