Spares & Repairs (2024)
Silicone Casts, Video, Arduino Micro Processors
‘Spares and Repairs’ presents a speculative haunting legacy left behind after a pursuit of physical, cognitive and cosmetic upgrades driven by an insatiable desire for self-improvement and enhancement.
The installation examines the transhumanist perspective that views our minds and bodies as obsolete technologies, outmoded formats in need of a complete overhaul. Through this lens, the work explores how excessive enhancement alienates the corporeal body and invites reflection on the delicate balance between progress and humanity.
‘Spares and Repairs’ serves as a commentary on the extremes we might pursue in our quest for perfection and challenges us to reconsider the value of our natural humanity in an era dominated by rapid technological advancement and pervasive social media influence.
