Anna Mensing (she/her)
Deciding on an abortion, Olivia researched the process online, finding technical information but lacking emotional narratives. Staying at Anna Mensing’s studio, she allowed her companion to document her journey with a camera, resulting in a documentary-style project adorned with her deepest thoughts and emotions. Together, they created a project transcending mere documentation, aiming to normalize abortion discourse and shed light on the pain - physically and mentally.

This project includes more than the acutal abortion itself.
An abortion starts the moment you consider a planned miscarrige and does not end when the abortion pain leaves your body. It comes with a mental load, and for some, it stays for their whole life.
