These prints are constructed using a landscape format making reference to a photographic test-strip sheet, the idea of different shots. The images used tell individual stories but are connected to all the images used in this body of the prints work as a single series.
This print deals with notion of stigma with bandages covering the writing ‘stigma’. Next to that image is a row of chairs that suggest the idea of the waiting room, referring to the waiting lines at a clinic, and suggest that with this new technology, the waiting line will be reduced, as the time waiting for a CD4 test result will be considerably lessened.
