Photo of gallery view by Steffen Allen Untranslated Cervix (2011) is an installation that was inspired by a doctor's comments about her work in Uganda trying to provide medical care and education to the local village:

In Rufumbira, the local language here in Kisoro, there is no word for cervix,   
and the word vagina is a shameful, dirty word, rarely uttered.  – Erin Cox, MD

What happens when there is no language for parts of the woman's body? How do you rescue someone without coordinates to their site of trauma? I think about the ownership of language and how that ultimately translates into the ownership of one's body and health.
