My
capstone explores the medical dehumanization of the female body and
the devices used on women. In the medical model, a woman becomes only
a sum of the parts that define her. By juxtaposing antique medical devices
with the human form I hope to create the feeling of isolation and dread
that many women experience when visiting the doctor. The images depict
the isolation and ugliness of the devices that were endured by patients
in order to develop the modern medical technologies we use today. |
