This workshop explored the way the body as a resource for biomedicine is thought of at different scales and what it means when there is a shift between scales. With the aid of Barrie Ormsby, a visual artist, a group of twenty participants undertook a series of exercises which reflected upon the body as partible and made up of entities [organs and tissues] that are physically isolatable, hierarchically ordered and yet dynamically interlinked. Having created a series of composite bodies the group then encountered the larger scale social and moral imaginaries that com into play when these are put into circulation.
