The Care Unit, obtains and simultaneously challenges features from a traditional hospital room. It offers an alternative perspective on medical care-products and encourages questions around agency of the ill-body in relation to the medical industry. The care-unit is a test-site for exploring vulnerabilities as well as the strengths of collective forces such as DIY and open-source approaches to healing and sickness management. By proposing medical open-source hardware and software this scenographic installation aims to motivate curiosity around communal care and turns around the essential question of who has agency over our bodies.
