Gravid means pregnant not dead (2023)

Reproductions of engravings from William Hunter’s The Human Gravid Uterus, 9“x12” aged construction paper; high gloss medium


This series of collages reproduce images from William Hunter´s Anatomia Uteri Humani Gravidi Tabulis Illustrata (The Anatomy of the Human Gravid Uterus Exhibited in Figures, 1774). Reproductions of the original illustrations are pasted ink-side down so that the image is encased between the two sheets of paper, visible only through the ink bleed.
