Laura Splan weaves a delicate juxtaposition of our body's internal function with physical adornments like clothing. She endeavors to expose the symptoms of a broader social discomfort with the unpleasant realities of human biology in things like a negligee (see Trousseau) made from cosmetic facial masks and machine-embroidered with various botanical and ornamental decorative motifs.
In this video she introduces us to her work.
