In order to reignite oncologists' passion, we decided to emphasize the beauty of what they're used to seeing as gloomy.
'The Art of Besting Cancer' is a unique exhibition, created from authentic oncological materials - curated for a year, and artistically twisted into 4 exhibits that represent the journey of cancer treatment.
Exhibit 1: Diagnosis
Immunohistochemistry stained cancer cells, that after effective treatment would no longer exist - framed and presented as memorial portraits.
Exhibit 2: Imaging
Statues of two classical icons with 3D projections of lung and breast tumors, highlighting the contrast between healthy-looking bodies that hide an invisible disease.
Exhibit 3: Treatment
A cutting-edge video showing immune cells eliminating cancer cells – surrounded by historical wars. Highlighting the oncologists as war heroes.
Exhibit 4: Surgery
Specimen jars become colorful pixels, spelling HOPE. Each jar contains an artifact of a patient whose life was prolonged by surgery.
