International artist Berenice Omedo visits Shanghai CareFix Medical Instrument Co., Ltdd. to empower artistic creation with medical technology
On March 20, 2025, renowned Mexican artist Berenice Olmedo visited Shanghai CareFix Medical Instrument Co., Ltd. and purchased the company's external fixation bracket series products. This visit not only showcases the cross-border integration of art and medical technology, but also marks a breakthrough exploration of Carefix Medical devices in innovative application scenarios.
The intersection of art and medicine: redefining the narrative of the body
Berenice Omedo is renowned in the international art world for her dynamic and static sculpture installations. Her creations often use medical aids such as orthotics and prosthetics as a medium to explore the potential and limitations of the body, and challenge traditional notions of "integrity" through deconstruction and reorganization of body parts. His works deeply touch upon social issues such as disability, illness, and care ethics, forcing the audience to reflect on the demanding standards of the body in contemporary society and the profound impact of external tools on human survival.
In the product exhibition hall of Carefix Medical, Omedo gained a detailed understanding of the design principles, material characteristics, and clinical application scenarios of external fixation brackets. She showed a strong interest in the modular structure, lightweight materials, and ergonomic design of the product, and said, "These brackets are not only medical tools, but also carry the philosophical tension between the body and space, freedom and constraint. I hope to reveal through artistic recombination how they intervene in the fragility and resilience of human existence
From Function to Expression: The Artistic Renewal of Carefix Medical Products
Carefix Medical's external fixation bracket series is known for its high precision, high adaptability, and durability, and is widely used in orthopedic treatment and rehabilitation fields. Omedo plans to integrate these products into its new work, exploring how medical devices can transform from "repair tools" to "existential metaphors" through the combination of dynamic installations and static sculptures. She emphasized, "Carefix Medical's products combine industrial aesthetics and functionality in both material and form, providing a unique language for artistic creation - they are both bones that support the body and symbols that deconstruct standards
Exploring Society through Art: An Extension of Carefix Medical's Mission
Omedo's creations have always focused on the survival situation of marginalized groups, while Carefix Medical, as a leading enterprise in the industry, has long been committed to the research and development of inclusive healthcare and public welfare projects. This collaboration is not only a collision of technology and art, but also a dialogue about an inclusive future. Omedo pointed out, "Medical devices are often seen as tools for 'correcting defects,' but they actually reflect the limitations of human cognition of diverse bodies. Through collaboration with Carefix Medical, I hope to give these devices a new narrative - they are not 'repairing defects,' but partners for expanding life experiences
Looking to the future: infinite possibilities for cross-border innovation
This visit has opened up a new dimension of artistic collaboration for Carefix Medical. Omedo's new work is expected to make its debut at the global exhibition in 2026. At that time, the Carefix Medical external fixed bracket will convey profound insights about the body, freedom, and dignity to the world in a disruptive artistic form.
