For the show, the Abigail Ogilvy Gallery is delighted to bring a series of four, meticulously rendered, large format, graphite on paper, As Built Drawings, to Boston. The drawings have previously been seen in San Francisco and at the David J. Sencer CDC Museum in association with the Smithsonian Institution. For each drawing in this series, Price formed a life-size silhouette with thousands of hand-drawn anatomical terms that are astonishingly placed in their correct locations in the body. Then, through the series, the outlines of the form fizzle, dissolve, and ultimately invert as the words are replaced with descriptions of processes that disturb the body with the inner form hollowed out altogether. Each drawing takes approximately 6 months to complete over hundreds of hours. Greg Flood of the San Francisco Examiner noted that “the potent mixture of visual beauty and dark subject matter combine in these drawings to stunning effect.”
