An image-text dialogue between David Cronenberg's vision of the human body and wax models from a legendary Italian science museumThis book was published for an exhibition at Fondazione Prada, where the models of La Specola Museum (part of the Museum of Natural History in Florence) were exhibited alongside a newly conceived short film by Canadian film director David Cronenberg.
