Pernilla Manjula Philip (Uppsala, Sweden, 1978) is fascinated by feelings and the embodiment of emotions. For the installation Care Unit, Philip combined features from a traditional doctor’s office, a domestic space, and a lab. It offers an alternative perspective on medical care products, and encourages questions around agency of the ill body in relation to the medical-industrial complex. Care Unit envisions hacking and tinkering as collaborative tools of activism in order to reimagine alternative collective care systems.
