Wan's photographic practice with its emphasis on performance and the body with a particular attention to the relationship between the body and the medical experience is extremely timely within 21st century preoccupations. The accompanying essays document Wan's parallel lives as artist, studio photographer and organizer in the West coast art scene of the 1970s and 1980s. Wan died in 1987 at the age of 34.
