Royal College of Physicians Museum Late - July
This event has been archived!

In the last of our Museum Lates featuring exhibition 'Unfamiliar' we are delighted to welcome back co-curators photographer Theo Deproost and physician associate Debbie Jegede.
Together, Theo and Debbie identified objects from within the depths of our museum stores which intrigued, surprised and delighted them. Debbie's clinical curiosity and Theo's creative eye brought together the worlds of medicine and art, reinterpreting items from our medical and fine art collections with new artworks. The stunning results are displayed in the exhibition, alongside the original objects to highlight their hidden richness and beauty.
Theo's artworks offer new, altered perspectives that challenge our understanding and impression of supposedly inert museum objects. Theo and Debbie invite us to approach these objects and images with a curious mind, to experience them in unexpected ways, and reinterpret them through the lens of our own experiences.
