Full Description
Secrets inside—the artwork of Michael Tummings discloses the wonderland of anatomy and brings secrets in
sight. The visualisation of the body's mysterium and its exploration in the framework of surgical procedures
provides new perspectives onto our physical existence and modern medicine. The beauty of art photography
opens our mind for an intimate contact with our organs "under repair" and allows a glimpse into the beauty of
our physical nature beyond any analytical, rationale and dissecting approach. Medicus curat—natura sanat: the
physician cures but the nature heals. These views over the surgeon's shoulder may not only display the
spectrum of surgical skill and technological progress but also remind us that being connected to our physis is
an important element for fighting and even preventing diseases. In an era of increasing availability of artificial
joints, body implants and even partial artificial organs we have to cherish the wonder of our biology and
nature.
