His ‘Proof of Life’

From Dennis Svoronos’s show “Proof of Life,’’ at Boston Sculptors Gallery, through Dec. 7

The gallery says:

“Years after his brain-cancer diagnosis, Dennis Svoronos remains surprisingly alive, and ponders the problems he and others face being among the masses of life-long patients. Through interactive and kinetic work, he conveys the horror and humor of the place between chronically ill and unexpectedly well.

“To these ends, Svoronos has made work with thousands of replicated medications, created eerie animatronics and uses brain-scanning technology in his own device called an MRI (Mind Reactive Instrument). As a patient himself, Svoronos uses his work to create a safe space to discuss and debate issues affecting our most vulnerable.’’
