• How To Get A Thigh Gap
  Funded 2021-2022 How To Get A Thigh Gap is a multimedia project by Nisha Patel (she/her) and Bree Meiklejohn (she/her). Nisha Patel is an artist specializing in poetry and spoken word was the 2019-2021 City of Edmonton Poet Laureate. Nisha’s work explores themes including disability and ableims, illness, identity and race, and her life as a queer South Asian woman. Bree is a University of Alberta student studying English and Creative Writing who writes to themes of marginalization, including fatphobia and sexism, mental illness and disability, and works towards using her artistic work to explore social justice and the role of the arts in achieving it. The multimedia photo/poetry series, How to Get A Thigh Gap, will articulate systemic fatphobia through creatively rewriting the WikiHow Article “How to Get a Thigh Gap” (writing and illustration laden with fatphobia), and replacing the illustrations with self-taken photos exploring fat joy in a fat body.
