This project is about Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviours people. BFRBs include any repetitive self-grooming behaviour which may result in physical impairment, and people with this condition struggle to stop the behaviour. I used stitches to record personal data on events throughout the day for 5 BFRBs people. I explore the relationship between disorders and emotions in marginalised populations by finding an emotive language of data to promote mental-emotional support amongst Body-focused repetitive behaviours, engaging in a dialogue with the audience through visual and tactile sensations.
