Synopsis
In her series Removals, Finnish photographer Maija Tammi looks at the most common diseases by showing their raw evidence just a few minutes after operations. A removed gallstone, a goiter in a kidney bowl, looking like rare gems. "People find them really visually pleasing when they don't know what's in the photo," Tammi says, "They sometimes change their mind when they find out."
In Leftover, "portraits" of used radiation therapy masks, collected from hospitals, deal with the fear of sickness; both defined and undefined.
The intriguingly designed double book Leftover / Removals combines both series into a parallel story.

Seller: Reilly Books, Richmond, VA, U.S.A.
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: New. Hardcover. Handmade book cover in seven parts. 24 x 30 cm. 128 pages. 54 color illustrations. Text in English. Sealed, new. Leftover is a photography series of used radiotherapy masks collected from three different hospitals. The masks hold traces of the people who wore them and smell like fear that was and still is. Tammi collected and photographed over three hundred masks of which a selection of 27 is presented in the book. Award winning series Removals shows some of the most common diseases a few minutes after the surgical operations, captured in the corners of operating rooms, at two hospitals in Finland. The series questions if beauty stops at the skin leaving everything underneath disgusting but also removes the other, the suffering patient, leaving the viewer with the bare disease. The photographs are accompanied with a dialogue of three surgeons talking about the photos. Leftover/Removals is a double book that combines both series into a parallel story.
