THE RED SHOW (2001)

"The Red Show" is intended to blur the line between the body as a scientific object and a sensual object, and the line between specimen and scientist. The installation looks like a laboratory. Small glass jars and test-tubes are arranged on stainless steel tables and shelves. Each vessel contains an x-ray image of human body parts, juxtaposed with an image of a woman’s naked body, and have been assigned specimen numbers. They are intended to be examined by spectators.  A television monitor adjacent to the specimen table displays and records their hands as they examine the jars and tubes. Emanating is a mechanical sounding echocardiogram, suggesting the presence of the equipment which would have originally recorded the sound.
