Evolution & Women’s Health

I have been invited to collaborate on a scientific paper by a professor of evolutionary biology. The biometric data contained within my hundreds of casts of the body is a unique reference library of genital morphology. By digitising the collection, computer analysis will be able to understand the variations in morphology and their evolutionary direction, providing invaluable insights in the understudied field of women’s healthcare. By further adding significantly to the total number of casts this paper could be a game changer for many areas of gynaecological research, product and medicinal development.

We are in the fundraising stage. More will soon be revealed…

Please email me if you would like to know more about the opportunity to fund this research. There has been a decimation of public funding in the USA, where the project will be based, and everything has stalled until a solution for funding is found. We are also seeking models for the next series of castings. More information is available by contacting the studio.

Please feel free to share this page to anybody you think might be interested.

The Great Wall project took me five years with the help of 400 volunteers and countless studio assistants. They are the real heroes and they should be totally proud, given the impact and reach of that artwork.

See here my legacy of sociopolitical artworks. Because they can take years to produce they don’t come thick and fast but have been a constant in my practice since art school. All my other work helps to fund these, sometimes difficult to realise, projects.
