:: synopsis ::
The spoken text of The Wax Museum of Anatomy is a poem about the wax models, once used for teaching medicine, in the museum at the University of Bologna. Video clips from several sources have been reprocessed into a continuum of pouring, flowing and moulding, both of wax/flesh, and the earth.
