In this project, I examine the exterior of the body, its shell, defects, wrinkles, aging, and changes as symbols of life, that we have lived. The project also involves people who have suffered from diseases that have changed their bodies both on the inside and the outside. Emma lost her twin sister in cancer a few years ago. Emma herself battled breast cancer and she also had a brain tumor for many years. Finally, her body couldn't take it anymore and she died peacefully at the Hospice where she received care at the end of her life.
