A fractured marble bone hangs in a steel frame. The illuminant marble glows. The metal rings circlulate and penetrate the marble, suspending its pieces so that the fracture is aligned.

On the radio, Magic FM plays live, as is currently being played in operating theatres across London.

An exploration of the human body as a force, a divinity, the pinnacle of evolution and a power beyond our understanding. The radio noise sounds tiny, ‘like that played in a mechanic’s yard’. Here, HS attempts to underplay the role of the doctor and, in doing so, elevate the power of the mending bone.
