Most cases affect children and young people with five out of six cases affecting teenage girls. Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) generally reveals itself around age 12yrs although teenage fashions often mean it isn\u2019t noticed until later or until pain or other issues and complications set in. As a result, many parents blame themselves for not noticing what was happening to their child. Existing research indicates that the impact of AIS on body perception in young people causes notable distress and it is recognised that the experience of invasive spinal-fusion surgery can have a big impact on the young people affected, and their developing \u2018sense of self\u2019. In our research project we set out to explore different ways of knowing and understanding the body using art as a primary means of self-expression. Uniquely, the project took an interdisciplinary approach drawing on knowledge and expertise from across human-geography, psychology, health and art practice to explore connections between the trunk of the body and the trunks of trees that had grown differently for unknown reasons.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Read the full article on <a href=\"https:\/\/mh.bmj.com\/content\/50\/1\/41\"><strong>the <em>Medical Humanities <\/em>journal website<\/strong><\/a>.<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-3800\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/medical-humanities\/files\/2024\/03\/Baker-Catherine-et-al-Adolescent-Idiopathic-Scoliosis-Interdisciplinary-creative-art-practice-and-nature-connections-Baker-216x300.jpg\" alt=\"Catherine Baker\" width=\"200\" height=\"278\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/medical-humanities\/files\/2024\/03\/Baker-Catherine-et-al-Adolescent-Idiopathic-Scoliosis-Interdisciplinary-creative-art-practice-and-nature-connections-Baker-216x300.jpg 216w, https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/medical-humanities\/files\/2024\/03\/Baker-Catherine-et-al-Adolescent-Idiopathic-Scoliosis-Interdisciplinary-creative-art-practice-and-nature-connections-Baker-768x1066.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/medical-humanities\/files\/2024\/03\/Baker-Catherine-et-al-Adolescent-Idiopathic-Scoliosis-Interdisciplinary-creative-art-practice-and-nature-connections-Baker-1106x1536.jpg 1106w, https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/medical-humanities\/files\/2024\/03\/Baker-Catherine-et-al-Adolescent-Idiopathic-Scoliosis-Interdisciplinary-creative-art-practice-and-nature-connections-Baker-1475x2048.jpg 1475w, https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/medical-humanities\/files\/2024\/03\/Baker-Catherine-et-al-Adolescent-Idiopathic-Scoliosis-Interdisciplinary-creative-art-practice-and-nature-connections-Baker-640x889.jpg 640w, https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/medical-humanities\/files\/2024\/03\/Baker-Catherine-et-al-Adolescent-Idiopathic-Scoliosis-Interdisciplinary-creative-art-practice-and-nature-connections-Baker.jpg 1748w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/>Dr Catherine Baker<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Catherine is an Artist-researcher and Associate Professor in Art and Health at Birmingham City University, UK where she is also Faculty Ethics Lead for Art, Design and Media.
