Using glass and neon, Jessica Lloyd-Jones has created a series of sculptures inspired by biological electricity, the prescence of natural electrical activity in the human body.
About Anatomical Neon:
Blown glass human organs encapsulate inert gases displaying different colours under the influence of an electric current. The human anatomy is a complex, biological system in which energy plays a vital role. Brain Wave conveys neurological processing activity as a kinetic and sensory, physical phenomena through its display of moving electric plasma. Optic Nerve shows a similar effect, more akin to the blood vessels of the eye and with a front ‘lens’ magnifiying the movement and the intensity of light. Heart is a representation of the human heart illuminated by still red neon gas. Electric Lungs is a more technically intricate structure with xenon gas spreading through its passage ways, communicating our human unawareness of the trace gases we inhale in our breathable atmosphere.
First picture: Mind = Blown.

the whole repertoire: How bout them needles?
Your first parenteral return demonstration? Intramuscular, Subcutaneous, Intradermal.Where you took oaths with your partner and swore each other’s life to each other, and begged for them to make it less painful. Haha. As if that’ll help. Remember those people who actually skipped classes or cried before and after? Hahaha fools.
Damn those hand tremors. How you develop pseudoparkinsonism as soon as you touch those syringe packets, aspirate/incorporate medications, and flick them bubbles? Additional neck sweat and tremors when your clinical instructor’s watching you.
Hate glass ampules? Seriously up to know I still hate handling ampules. Can’t open one without using a clean gauze or cloth to cover up the glass while breaking it. How scared you were on spilling it because of your tremors, and you didn’t know it won’t spill even if you turn it upside down.
Your first bleb/wheal? Remember how hard intradermal was until you learned the techniques? How some were so superficial, that it punctured through the other end of the skin? IMO this is the most painful! If possible, always offer the ID in the non dominant hand.
Remember immunization day at the community health center? Get ready to immunize a whole lot of crying kids! Your patience was tested and they were forever traumatized by your image and kicked you away. Hahaha. Good thing you used the nurse’s comforting words.
Your first intravenous insertion? I know this isn’t allowed for student nurses to do, but if you’re lucky, they’ll be willing to risk their licenses for you. Haha. Seeing the blood backflow without complications is a huge relief. It just takes practice, and some propanolol for tremors. LOL just messing.
the whole repertoire: Maltese Cross
The cross enclosed in the circle is the Maltese Cross. Whenever you see someone wearing a Maltese Cross pin, you will immediately have in mind that the person is a graduate nurse of St. Luke’s College of Nursing. Wearing the pin means we are ready to face the world outside our Alma Mater.
