The visual representation of the human body forms an important piece in the medical history across the world. In this episode, Team Chippin’ Away interviews Snehal Tambulwadikar-Khedkar on various perspectives on human body represented through art across time. The discussions carry forward a historical lens to trace the changes in representing the human body as an idealized form, an abstract representation, or as an anatomically accurate tool for physiological studies. Starting from the ancient civilizations and their ideals for the human body in art, we discuss human bodies in sculpture, paintings, frescos and plastic art. 

The series, 'Rooh', is the outcome of a Foundation Project within the purview of the Archives and Museums Program of the India Foundation for the Arts in collaboration with the S.L. Bhatia History of Medicine Museum, Library and Archives, Bangalore, to explore the many themes of the History of Medicine. Part funding was also provided by the Parijat Foundation.
