Fatigue announces itself in the body as a collapse of coherence. Vision blurs, language loosens, limbs and thoughts feel weighted. There is a sensation of sinking inward, a diffuse yet specific obliteration of strength that arrives without warning. These episodes are not exceptional; they are part of the habitual, daily negotiations between the body and chronic illness.

Haylee Anne and her collaborators are working within this incoherent body: one shaped by decades of fluctuating exhaustion, medical rituals, and the precarity of illness.

In a system that demands constant productivity while offering limited support, surrendering to fatigue risks erasure. Bone Deep pulls fatigue out of intangibility and forces it into material. Through abstracted photographic methods, exhaustion is rendered as an embodied record of survival.
