She's a local artist in San Francisco that was serving as the artist in residence at Pier 9. There she's come up witht the possibility to recreate human skeletons via 3d printing and the results are stunning! 


She claims that the potential use of these designer bones could bring a new wave of fashionable modifiable body parts. The physical body is not just a creation of nature, she's optimistic about the possibilities of science and art making discoveries for medical discoveries.
