Queering the Waiting Room is a visual essay that reimagines the institution as malleable. Borrowing from Jean Oury’s notion of ‘pathoplasty’, which attributes sickness to the milieu, the project redirects the gaze away from individual patients and towards the social structure of the hospital itself. Originally made for SARA2021 conference and screened at Hospitalfield in May 2021.
