Here’s why you should watch this TED Talk...
Vanessa Ruiz takes us on an illustrated journey of human anatomical art over the centuries, sharing captivating images that bring this visual science -- and the contemporary artists inspired by it -- to life. "Anatomical art has the power to reach far beyond the pages of a medical textbook," she says, "connecting our innermost selves with our bodies through art."

In primary school, I was fascinated by illustrations of human anatomy in my biology textbooks. Watching this talk helped me to finally understand that there are other people who find anatomy as worth their attention as I do.
