Kidneys are overcome with crystal-like stones. At first glance we may be seduced by the apparent preciousness of the imagery and object but there are underlying issues that are invisible such as illness and disease. Kidneys are the prize in the world of organ trafficking as they are the most trafficked organ in the world (not unlike revered religious relics of the past). Our organs possess great agency, they are indeed precious, sacred and irreplaceable. They possess the miraculous power to give others an ‘afterlife’. A modern case of grotesque seduction.
