Exploring Fat Embodiment In Urban Space Through ‘Fermented’ Poetic Inquiry

Gillian Sonnad and Noortje van Amsterdam
Drawing on an encounter in Amsterdam, Gillian Sonnad and Noortje van Amsterdam examine the intersection of urban spaces with the lived experiences of fat bodies, utilizing autoethnography and poetry to articulate such bodies' hypervisibility and simultaneous affective invisibility.
