As a selection of 120 images looped in the background—a range of sources and my own photographs—, I discussed my ongoing research on pain and its hosting bodies, touching on visuality and visualness, distance, representation. I used a reverse lecture format, asking questions at the beginning of the talk to delve further into how I was beginning to articulate responses to these research questions.
