For her installation The Last Safe Abortion (2023), artist Carmen Winant assembled 2,500 photographic prints to form a collective portrait of the ordinary, daily tasks required to provide abortion health care. Drawn from the archives of university special collections and clinics (and supplemented by photographs made by the artist), these images depict staff, physicians, and volunteers taken over a fifty-year period before the overturning of Roe v. Wade in 2022.
In this program, Winant extends this project by bringing together a group of clinicians, patients, and activists from the MYA Network to discuss how photography is central to understanding the medical, political, and social realities of abortion care.
