Abortion is Art....Not

Abortion is Art....Not
Quoted directly from Yale Daily News: "Beginning next Tuesday, Shvarts will be displaying her senior art project, a documentation of a nine-month process during which she artificially inseminated herself "as often as possible" while periodically taking abortifacient drugs to induce miscarriages. Her exhibition will feature video recordings of these forced miscarriages as well as preserved collections of the blood from the process."

Even as an art major, I have a lot of trouble stomaching this, and I've stomached a lot (like watching someone a condom full of condensed milk into their anus as part of their thesis). 

Aliza's project deals directly with life, and with it, the killing of it. I'm not saying anything about being pro-choice or pro-life, but I have a feeling that she doesn't necessarily understand the gravity and implications of her own bodily statement.
