Abstract

I greeted Judy in the same waiting room at the Head and Neck Cancer Clinic where the physicians and nurses had met her as a patient. She arrived on time, as always. She collected up her bags and her cup of coffee from the vending machine. I showed her into the bare, windowless room adjacent to the clinic’s examination bays. What was once a postal room was now transformed into an artist’s studio, where Judy and other patients consented to engage in the process of sitting for their portrait.
