Syphilis Wax Class - Eleanor Crook - workshop


Collection center GUM

Renowned British medical artist and anatomical sculptor Eleanor Crook, gives a unique hands-on lesson in “Pathological Moulage”, the wax 3D elaboration of the dreaded skin disease syphilis. Under the guidance of the artist herself, you will learn to know the symptoms of syphilis in bone and skin and sculpt them on a wax model. Your work will be based on real medical images for optimal realism. And of course, you can take your artistic syphilis moulage home with you.
