A student at Yale University, who for her "senior art project" says she repeatedly artificially inseminated herself and then took abortifacient drugs to induce multiple miscarriages, plans next week to display her "art" – including blood from her own forced abortions – prompting reactions ranging from horror and disgust to suggestions of fraud.

What she did generate was shock.

Echevarria had the same concern.
"Yale should be ashamed that it is allowing an 'art' project that will offend millions of Americans," she told LifeNews.com "Abortion is the deliberate destruction of human life. Putting that destruction on display as so-called art crosses a line and Yale should respond by pulling this project."

Yale president Richard Levin declined to respond to WND's request for a comment.
The campus newspaper said the sperm donors were not paid for their services, but Shvarts said she required them to be checked for sexually transmitted diseases. She contended she was not concerned about the medical effects on her body.
The newspaper reported art major Juan Castillo said he was intrigued by the creativity and beauty of project.
"I really loved the idea of this project, but a lot other people didn't," Castillo said. "I think that most people were very resistant to thinking about what the project was really about. [The senior-art-project forum] stopped being a conversation on the work itself."

Shvarts said part of her goal was to push art into being a medium of politics and ideologies.
The newspaper said the display of Schvarts' project will feature a large cube suspended from the ceiling of a room in the gallery of Green Hall.
The student will wrap hundreds of feet of plastic sheeting around the cube, the paper reported. Blood from Schvarts' self-induced abortions will be placed between layers of the sheeting, mixed with Vaseline to prevent drying and to extend the blood throughout the sheeting. Schvarts will then project recorded videos onto the four sides of the cube. The videos, according to Schvarts, will show her experiencing miscarriages in her bathrooom tub. Similar videos will be projected onto the walls of the room.
Those particular plans raised the ire of David Codrea, a 2nd Amendment advocate who blogs at War on Guns.

"One could make the argument that the exhibit legally should be classified as hazardous medical waste, and without proper handling, storage and spill clean-up/disposal procedures, with training for affected staff and employees, it poses a danger to the public and to all involved," he wrote. "I wonder if Yale's risk management department was consulted?"
He said he had e-mailed Yale that the university's own guidelines state: "Programs implementing University policy have been established to protect the health and safety of students, faculty and staff and meet regulatory requirements that are required by OSHA, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the National Institutes of Health."
"For the record – has this event been approved … and have all appropriate regulatory conditions been documented as compliant?" he asked.
The newspaper said the official reception for the Undergraduate Senior Art Show will be from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. April 25. The exhibition will be on public display from April 22 to May 1. The art exhibition is set to premiere alongside the projects of other art seniors April 22 at the gallery of Holcombe T. Green Jr. Hall on Chapel Street.
