Made via a collaboration with surgeon Francis Wells at Papworth Hospital, Distinctions and Counterposes investigates technological and human aspects of transplant surgery. One part of the project starts with Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans of the heart used by the surgeon to aid diagnosis and planning of surgery. This raw data has been translated into a form which can be use to produce three-dimensional models. These objects are produced using rapid prototyping technology not normally used to reverse engineer existing objects. The transference of data from one field to another and the act of reconstruction echoes the process of organ transplant. At the same time it tests the limits of the technologies involved.

The second element is based on talks with medical staff, recipients of donor organs and the families of deceased donors and explores the intense and complex feelings surrounding organ transplant. This investigation is presented though a series of photographic pieces.
