Reading Bodies

A handling collection of tactile ceramic pieces, designed for observation skills workshops for medical students at Imperial College London.

This is an interdisciplinary and collaborative project, supported by the UAL Mead Scholarship, designed to improve observation skills, inspire descriptive language, and develop touch as a way of noticing small differences, and seeing more.

With thanks for support from The Mead Scholarship, colleagues at Imperial College London - Dr Jamila Sherif, Dr Senita Mountjoy, Dr Afrina Alam and Giskin Day - and the students of Imperial College.
