Full Description
Ideal bodies represents a series of works on the subject of encounter between technology and the body in its form and materiality. The project utilises sensory data from 3 dimensional scans as a literal representation of the body as seen trough technological lens. assigning the insufficiency of the tools used to the body itself. The gaps in the data are further being filled trough software tools, resulting in the reconstruction of the body. The final outcome of the process is a return to the material through a print of the reconstructed body. This process is used to question the notion of the artist’s body and identity, as well as to discuss the definition of “man” and its dependence on a predefined physicality. Project includes digital prints of the scans and reconstructions, as well as 3D prints of the models.
