The Marvin Samson Museum for the History of Pharmacy presents work by Artist-in-Residence Teresa Cervantes. Drawing on traditions of apothecary craft, pharmaceutical marketing, and visual art, Cervantes’ compounded artistic approaches divulge the hope, fear, and purpose contained within the domestic medicine cabinet. As sites of ritual self-construction, medicine cabinets are porous spaces bridging the personal and political, the corporal and corporate. Indications invites viewers to consider the active ingredients of play, poetry, and touch as forms of resistance to today’s increasingly corporate health and wellness industries.
