Synopsis: This discussion will explore some of the many visual images that were edited out of her book Anatomy Museum: Death and the Body Displayed (Reaktion, 2016). What kinds of images remain invisible in contrast to those selected and displayed in the printed book? What are the implications of this kind of cutting out?
