*The “Reframing Revolution” gallery features medical illustrations of women’s health.*

We are absolutely delighted to share that one of our most recent projects was featured in Forbes! After starting Biotic Artlab in 2020, we are excited to see medical illustration get its spotlight.

Did you know that fewer than 5% of images in medical textbooks and illustrations show people of color?

Together, we worked with Peanut (an online community for women) to create a royalty-free digital gallery of images that focuses on the diversity of women and women’s bodies. This “Reframing Revolution” gallery works to counter the lack of diversity that is seen in medical visualizations by making visible the invisible through representing:

age
body hair (arm, leg, pubic)
stretch marks
different ethnicities and skin tones
diversity of age
varying breast and nipple shapes and sizes
body sizes and fat folds

Topics covered in the collection:

IVF Bruising

PCOS
Linea nigra
Pregnancy breast changes
Ectopic pregnancy
Vaginal birth
Stillbirth
Postpartum body
C-section
Jaundice in babies
Breastfeeding
Hair loss
Hot flashes
Vulvas
