Ageing is not a disease. It’s a natural occurrence that is often ignored. Elements of ageing are so commonplace they are not thought to be interesting or have aesthetic value. They almost become invisible. This exhibition presents drawings from a 2-year postdoctoral research fellowship undertaken at Medical Museion by Lucy Lyons. Lucy uses drawing as a method for gaining understanding of unfamiliar objects and to develop greater insight into the familiar. Join artists Lucy Lyons, Mette Bersang, and Joanna Sperryn Jones in a workshop, Look Again… Exploring Medical Objects Through Art, on Thursday April 26th, 7-9pm. In our everyday lives we are surrounded by hundreds of medical objects. These objects shape our lives, but they often disappear into the background. We invite you to join artists in using drawing, photography, and other lenses to look again – to uncover the beauty of everyday medical things.
