uterus = raum= universum

Awards of Distinction"u19 – freestyle computing" 2008
On an ultrasound image, we can examine the interior of the uterus, and make out its dimensions, its translucence and its outer limits. This project investigates analogies between this microcosm and the gigantic macrocosmic space of the universe. The image-generating technologies—the ultrasound procedure and the Hubble Telescope—are scrutinized and compared on the auditive level. The world is reflected by a grain of sand just as the universe corresponds to the uterus. The uterus, a highly socially charged female transformation space, becomes a reflection of the universe.
