The Hotline
Accessed by chatbot, The Hotline allows participants to explore anecdotes on reproductive healthcare with each user creating their own choose-your-own-adventure style narrative. Satirising anti-choice pregnancy helplines, The Hotline explores how patriarchal medicine impacts those experiencing reproductive health issues and the choose-your-own-adventure format comments on the illusion of choice people have when it comes to reproductive rights in Australia. This work explores the pitfalls of reproductive health for AFAB people through thoughtful satire and verbatim interviews of people’s lived experiences. This includes references to abortion, miscarriage and childbirth, as well as issues that receive less attention in the public realm such as hysterectomy, menopause and gender-affirming healthcare.
