Series of paintings by Mamie Holst which began in 1997 and is potentially still ongoing. The paintings in this series are various shades of black, white, and gray, and they tend to incorporate circular designs alongside other striped geometric patterns. Holst's creation of the series is motivated by her experience living with Chronic Fatigue and Immune Dysfunction Syndrome (CFIDS).
Artwork by Lynn Hershman Leeson depicting the white silhouette of a woman's head and torso against a black background. Colorful pictures such as a heart, a star, an airplane, and other geometric patterns are shown within the body in a manner that mimics a medical x-ray.
Self-portrait by Frida Kahlo depicting the artist's spine as a broken column. The rest of her body is constrained by an orthopedic corset and covered in nails, and there are tears painted on the artist's face.
Poem by Sarah M. Sala which addresses invisible illness, physical pain, and coming to terms with being ill. The first section of the triptych comprises nine stanzas which are then repeated and altered in the second and third sections.
