Needles and Threads examines the lived experiences and daily challenges of individuals with Type 1 Diabetes, an autoimmune disease. The concept of “needles” carries a dual meaning. In the medical context, they represent syringes and medical devices essential for treatment. In the artistic context, they symbolize threads, stitching, and the act of making. Through this duality, the work reflects the intersection of necessity and creativity, depicting how medical routines and artistic practices intertwine to shape identity, resilience, and expression.
