Since October 2021. I was writing poetry during the time of severe menstrual pain as a cognitive-behavioral exercise of shifting focus from the notion of the pain to cognitive activity and searching for the appropriate metaphor, while I was sensing it. This project started spontaneously. I was tired of trying to find the right fetal position after several attempts, tired of playing video games, watching films, or listening to music. I wanted to beat the pain with something more engaging, like poetry.

Further down the road, I started to expand the project into the field of intermedia art. Doing visuals with the theme of the PMS food cravings and representing it as cocktails, trying to mix several sweet tastes, fruits, and alcoholic drinks. I also represented the scale of the intensity of food cravings using junk food as an appropriate visual metaphor.
