In this visionary atlas, artist Kuang-Yi Ku and STI specialist Henry de Vries reimagine the human form, dismantling the patriarchal, heteronormative, and Western-centric frameworks of classical anatomy. The book critiques the way bodies are understood and represented, offering perspectives on the diversity and fluidity of human anatomy and depicting the spectrum of sex in a positive way, beyond the narrow focus of heteronormative sexuality. As long as there is mutual consent, the commonly accepted boundaries are unnecessary, artificial, and exclude essential parts of society. A dentist, Ku is also a bio-artist and speculative designer living between Taiwan and the Netherlands.
