The exhibition is really fantastic! it's been a long time since i last had so much fun and at the same time learnt and realised so much in a day. We all felt so drained after the exhibition that we just saw at the macs for 2 hours talking and deciding on what to do. As usual, we ended up bitching a little and talking about what we feel about a wide range of issues.
Anyway, the exhibition actually immortalized individuals who donated their bodies, which may be precisely who people actually donated their body? The body are crafted, sculptured, manipulated, torn, scraped, sawed into perfect work of 'art' or rather exhibits. Some may say it is dehumanising to do such a thing to a human body in the name of science. I say it's such a GREAT thing to do- to educate and let us see into ourselves, to see with our whole eyes what textbook and videos can't portray. It is all about relevance, authenticity that interest people to learn. This exhibition shows us how complex we are, how wonderful the design is, how amazing that we're even alive, kicking and living.
there were alot of messages in there too. some touched me. lots of interesting messages in there! love them but too bad camera isn't allowed:(
i could remember one clearly:
'Age is just a matter of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter'
