About this work

Description

Leaflet for a two day event of talks and discussions accompanying an exhibition called 'Skin' at Wellcome Collection (183 Euston Road, London) on 15 and 16 July 2011. "Dirt has long been a potent label for deviance and taboo, applied to those who dare to transgress social boundaries. Where does this powerful stigma come from? What is it like to be regarded by the world as morally contaminated?" The image shows a corseted man in a wig and women's clothing with a riding crop, probably from the Victorian era.
