Rhian Solomon'Lessons on Limberg', 2010/'Bodycloth', 2010
Inspired by a revolutionary text by pioneering Russian plastic surgeon AA Limberg ('The Planning of Local Plastic Operations on the Body Surface: Theory and practice', 1963), this newly commissioned work reveals the ongoing application in contemporary medical practice of Limberg's technique of constructing geometric paper models of skin flaps, which he used in the planning of surgical procedures in the 1960s.
