By presenting an organ, a fragmentation of the body, the viewer is given a sculpture to examine and decode which gives them another perspective of their own bodies.

Enormous amounts of scientific research and funding have been contributed towards the preservation and maintenance of the human organism. We are at a time in which our society must dedicate as much energy, thought and resources into the greater organism, our planet. This is the heart of the matter.

Title: 'Anatomy II'

Size: (HxWxD) -28x21.5x10cm

Year: 2008

The fluidity of the glass mirrors the fluctuating nature of the body. The state of the body is perpetually in flux, with fluids constantly being pumped around the body and cells dying and regenerating. My work reflects a need to understand the anatomical structure and space of the body. The fragmented, segmented body is significant in the field of anatomy and relevant to my work. The medical gaze maps the interior body, the once invisible and unchartered.
