In Exploded View, Ben Gould’s first solo exhibition at Pangée, the entanglement of art, medicine, and the human body is on display. Across the gallery, his new sculptural work transforms healthcare materials and experiences into sites of aesthetic and material inquiry. Stainless-steel rods extend from a hospital gurney, holding blown-glass vessels filled with cut flowers. Tumour-like iron forms, pierced by brass instruments, rest on the floor with rigid surfaces that suggest geological and organic matter. Atop a long oak plinth, medical ‘trophies’ made of electrochemically produced copper anatomical body parts and spindly plants recall the awards and medical models displayed on a physician’s desk or in rows at medical museums. Metal trays bearing ‘tools’—wondrous inventions from the artist’s imagination—hang on the wall.
