Juliana La Bella presents Beyond Linear Time: an installation inspired by her Master's research inviting DDW visitors to reimagine how workplaces support menstruating bodies.

A Space for Reflection

Drawing on research into menstrual equity within organisational structures, the installation invites visitors to reflect on whether current reality matches their vision of a better world. Rather than offering a ready-made alternative, Beyond Linear Time encourages them to take an active role in imagining this future for themselves.

Beyond Menstruation

Grounded in menstrual equity, the fight against period poverty, and the dissemination of information as core values of this project, the proposed dialogue goes beyond fundamental questions about access to menstrual management supplies and addresses issues such as sustainable professional growth, productivity, and autonomy within the corporate environment. Beyond the scope of this specific research, the proposals developed here can also be applied to a variety of other public organisational structures, raising the question of how these ideas might impact schools, social spaces, and other community spaces of interaction.
