Title: the rapture of the self
Fileformat: FBX
Year: 2019
Artwork description:
Since the existence of the cyberspace, the physical body has been declared obsolete, dead, replaced and replaceable by technology and machines. There is an obsession with the redefinition of the self as well as an anxiety about body boundaries, consciousness, subjectivity and identity. We are facing a new experience of corporeality and subjectivity, a new artificial flesh and materiality.
In “the rapture of the self”, virtual clones of the artist 3D-scanned body are trapped indefinitely in unnatural positions, resulted from an algorithmical anomaly. Their perpetual torture constantly shifts between ecstasy and anxiety, a rapture of the self and all its emotions.
Through these perceivable avatars, the artist proprioceptively renegotiates the gap between the physical and the virtual, human and machines.
