'''Description of Artwork:''' Ferguson's paintings depict nude female bodies with their skeletal systems showing through. The artist's work is an attempt to deal with her own disability: scoliosis, a curvature of the spine. Ferguson draws her own body's skeletal system (based on X rays, MRIs and 3D scans) on paper previously treated with oil paints and bronze powders. None of the censored paintings contained full frontal nudity. | '''Description of Artwork:''' Ferguson's paintings depict nude female bodies with their skeletal systems showing through.
