Imaginary Bodies

Photomedia

The Imaginary Bodies series consists of images of the Visible Human Project projected on the artist’s body. The resulting projections onto the body distorted the imagery, creating curious shapes that have only limited connections to a human body. For the second instance of the series, subtitled Refigurations of Lived Experience, the printed shapes were traced with white ink.
