 tive during the 1970s: Theodore Sasketche Wan (b. 1953\; d. 1987) and Paul 
 Wong (b. 1954). By mobilizing their own respective bodies\, and the visual 
 languages of medical and procedural illustrations\, both artists subverted 
 notions of objectivity that have been naturalized through such hegemonic im
 agery. Through these intensely physical works\, the two artists respectivel
 y asserted their othered subject-positions as people of colour as well as r
 uminated on the topics of illness\, death\, and the human condition.</span>
