Maya H - Animal-Reminder

 The title of this photo is "Animal-Reminder", taken during the heart dissection in Anatomy class. It is a photo of some of the internal structures of the heart, including a vessel (I do not recall which) on the top-middle and some fat on the left side. The title refers to the idea of "animal-reminder disgust", which is the feeling one can get when they are reminded that they, too, are simply an animal and mortal. I chose to reference this idea because I feel that this photo's subject matter (inside of an internal organ—you, too, are just meat; if you were put on the dissection table, your heart would look just the same as this pig's), as well as that of much of my other work, is able to depict this feeling and evoke it in the viewer.
