Constructing a Man: wire art

Back in the 70's I worked in the transplant and tissue bank field. In essence, we deconstructed the deceased so we could recycle organs and tissues for kidney, liver, and heart transplants. Long bones were used for orthopedic procedure, spine sections for spinal fusion, skin for burn patients, eyes for corneal transplant.... and on and on. This wire art - while Frankenstein'ish - has always reminded me of our efforts to save lives or improve the quality of life for thousands of patients.
