## Resource

A sharp, witty performance called Hard Mouth Show & Tell challenges how art is critiqued — and who gets to see the real story. Hugh Hick’s critic dives into Ella de Búrca’s work with dazzling erudition, linking her pieces to music, history, and horses — but misses the raw, personal pain behind them: endometriosis and female experience. Meanwhile, aerialist Elaine McCaugh silently embodies the artist’s body, revealing a life suspended in pain. It’s a blistering commentary on perception, gender, and the cost of overlooking suffering — especially when viewed through a male gaze.
