Abstract

Sick Transit is a tripartite intermedia piece about medicine, mobility, and art-making within a mother/daughter relationship defined by multiple sclerosis and transsexuality. The titular video performance is featured in Let's Exchange, a streaming telethonic variety show hosted by the artist, and framed by Control Room, an installation replicating the artist's pandemic studio.
