David B. is a retired tailor living in Chelsea. In 2007 he suffered two severe strokes, leaving him with Thalamic Pain Syndrome, causing the left side of his body to be in never-ending, neuropathic pain. Due to an undiagnosed bout of shingles, he also lost all hearing in his left ear, his equilibrium and the feeling on the left side of this face. David also suffers from Type 2 Diabetes. His disabilities are profound - but invisible.
Florian Sachisthal is a filmmaker and photographer, living in Hackney. Thalamic Warrior is a collaborative art series.
