The mesh of vessels is part of the first, and more controversial, of two exhibits arriving in Indianapolis that showcase preserved human corpses.

Quote:
The posed cadavers, shown in midsprint, or conducting an imaginary symphony, are preserved with hardened silicone.
Their bodily fluids have been drained, and they have been stripped of their skin to reveal organs and muscles.
...
One body is sliced down the middle, showing the organs on each side and how flat discs slip between vertebrae to provide cushioning.
"It's one of the most important exhibits a person can view," said Dr. Roy Glover, medical director for the traveling display. "It's really a mirror image of what your body is all about."
...
A disclaimer on Premier's Web page, a result of the settlement, tells visitors the company "cannot independently verify that the human remains you are viewing are not those of persons who were incarcerated in Chinese prisons.
