It's also admit the graphic qualities of exposure or testimony of the patient’s body, which in the AIDS crisis acquires a special status. It is take the body as a sensory or memorial bridge between self and environment. Testify of the disease through art is to speak about ourselves, our sexuality, our loves, our friends, our environment, our practices. It is make penetrate that other which is the viewer in our rawest intimacy. But the disease also affects the body as in these representations as a working tool, AIDS is therefore an object by which the artist demonstrates a physical condition whose symptoms are the tangible evidence of a pathological narration. The body-diseased tells a story, it is important for us to understand.
