LUMINAL SELF: ENDOSCOPY AND A NEW BODY IMAGE
Luminal Self: Endoscopy and a New Body Image is a cross-disciplinary, arts-based investigation into gastrointestinal (GI) disorders, their visualization by scientific and artistic means, and their effects upon patients’ lives and conceptions of self and body. The project seeks to promote empathy, dialogue, and body literacy, and combat the social stigmatization of GI disorders.
Co-PIs: Ghislaine Fremaux (artist and Associate Professor of Art, TTU), Dr. Marc Zuckerman (gastroenterologist and Professor of Medicine, TTUHSC El Paso), Nancy Casner (Certified Clinical Research Coordinator, TTUHSC El Paso).
Luminal Self will be publicly presented in Texas in October 2026. More information forthcoming.
