This is not a diary. This is not a portfolio. This is not a battle. In this thesis, one is sickened, but not pitied. This text is written in bed, not in cafes, universities or libraries. Pictures do not prove or owe anything. They describe pain that is loud and silent at the same time. The text is a documentation of the time after the young photographer fell ill with cancer. No one knows what will happen to you, the doctor said. The text goes through the experience and events of illness, from the diagnosis to the present through photographs, memories, notes, events and thoughts. Through visual elements and aesthetics, I reflect on how to expand the meaning of cancer narratives and cancer narrators: what they do and what they can do. How the myths, metaphors and harmful representations surrounding cancer make the disease even more an painful experience. When thinking about the aesthetics of illness: how does being ill look like? how do images of cancer affect the experience of illness itself? Can a painful picture be beautiful? The text also looks at the therapeutic role of images, the harmful representations of illness, the pol- itics of pain, the relationship between empathy and technology, and the aesthetics of pain in social media. The text is not a portrait of one person, but an idea of seeing, listening, and disappearing.
