Overview
The Medical Complication: presented as a pocket sized medical book. Beautifully illustrated with short pieces of writing that document the instructions, stories, conditions, imaginings and impressions. The text puts into play the validity of medical records and practitioners both pictorially and textually. The texts variety is of a surprising nature, exercising the psycho-medical issues at stake ranging from the poetic, heart-felt, to the medical condition systematically worked through. Endearing documentations from start to end by the medical professional; or the professional as the patient. Much of the drawings in this book have been exhibited at Museo 'La Specola' Florence and in Oxford (2013). Matt Collier is a trained artist who has been 'through it'- initiating this series when he was a full-time patient, and afterwards while working as a medical photographer. He has a masters of art from Glasgow School of Art at this time making work with the help of Huntarian anatomical museum.
