HANGING / Guernica
Aya Ben Ron
These are pieces that deal with issues of quotation, abstraction, ornamentalism and design. They employ comprehensible visual and aesthetic medical illustrations that manufacture patterns of data outlines and power. The pieces present a world made up of reproductions and hybridizations in which neither the source nor the essence exists. The didactic illustrations describe procedures of repair or preservation of the body, expropriated from their original contexts, in order to turn them into elements of design – an act that totally transforms the original meaning of the illustration, turning the experience of viewing into something subjective and uncertain.
