Synthetic Body Constructs - The smallest building block of the human body is no longer the atom, nor the molecule nor the cell but the pixel. The way we perceive, desire, modify and manipulate ourselves and others is now distorted through consumer-level digital processes and reconfigurations. We are aware that our bodily self image as well as those of all other physical representations around us are lies, sometimes well-intentioned and playful, sometimes harmful. This small collection of bodily illusions frozen in time aims at reinvigorating discussion about our uneasy truce between the desire for beauty and the price we pay for remodeling ourselves in our own image. From prenatal ultrasound imaging to Playboy magazine, no body escapes being rasterized and re-viewed.
