Bodyworks
In Bodywork, the writer, visual artist, and psychotherapist Eva Tuschman Leonard situates herself, through word and image, in two states of being two decades apart: as a physically expressive and active body in its twenties; and as one later subjected to the debilitations of autoimmune disease, requiring the daily labor—the titular Bodywork—of pain management.
And yet a linear timeline cat’s-cradles itself when Eva rediscovers a cache of works on paper, the majority self-portraits, in a forgotten personal archive. Of the period of their creation, she recollects:
“Flashback to my late teens and twenties when the life force pulsing through me was constantly searching for meaning. My inner landscape overflowed with dreams, longing, and a hunger to find my place in the world. Art-making became a dialogue, a dynamic conversation between interiority and exteriority.”
