What's upcoming for 2012
PROJECT ANATOME
Wellcome Trust Arts Award
Submission: April 23rd
In collaboration with anatomy lecturer at Durham University, PROJECT ANATOME will explore the role of art in the teaching of anatomy, and evaluate the impact on academic learning experiences.
During the academic year 2012-2013, I will be in residence at Durham University to study the range of anatomical teaching techniques, to inspire artwork that reflects upon, and challenges, the conventional/medical/scientific praxis of anatomy.
I will engage with the Patient Study module during phase 1 to observe students’ interaction with elected patients with chronic illness. Influenced by the biopsychosocial approach, the project will investigate the discourse of illness experience/narrative in the face of medical diagnosis, and facilitate the mutual creation of artwork by both student and patient – the illustration of biological disease in exchange with personal expressions of illness.
Public exhibitions of all artworks will encapsulate the science of anatomy and disease, whilst capturing the voice of illness, to explore the complexity of the authentic human condition.
