Skin (II) by Rebecca Guberman and Vestment by Valerie Caris both use
medical records as media for consideration of issues of control or
involvement in AIDS treatments, the complexities of personal treatment
regimens, and the ways in which AIDS constructs our individual, and
society's, perceptions of identity. Guberman transposes detailed notes
from her medical history and her own journal writings over microscopic
imagery of blood cells taken from medical textbooks, making an effective
comparison between the formal, clinical history of illness and lived
experience.
