Body Worlds exhibition

Corpses are stripped of their skin for this exhibition. It may be for an artistic purpose but I wouldn't let my mum's body be mutilated in this way. I feel it is a form of disrespect to the dead. Even though her body is a shell for her soul and it is cremated after death, cremation is a natural method of the death process. The body was the physical form of the person I love. This form of art degrades the journey of life and death, I feel.
