Hide The Matches
"Hide The Matches," merges my lived experiences of Attention Deficit- Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) diagnosis, with a critique of its associated medical terminology under the Diagnostics and Statistical Manual. The DSM describes people with ADHD in blanketed terms, claiming them to be careless, untrustworthy, and unreliable — terms which may have resonated in my tempermental preadolesence, but have become deeply disattatched as I've grown. Considering my diagnosis was the catalyst to this project’s creation as, simply, I do not identify with the terminology used to label such an interwoven part of my identity. Through various sub-series, I’ve considered neurodivergent impacts on space, genetics and the interruption of parental identity, and how associated language breeds shame for people diagnosed with ADHD.
