DEC 15th 7PM ET / 4PM PT Considering Art : Considering Bodyhood
Lisa-Marie Harris questions a body's thing-hood - its Bodyhood. Her hybrid process interrogates the idea of body as object, whilst considering the dehumanization and commoditization inherent in the breaking-apart and putting-together of form.In practice, concerns around reproduction, lineage, and personal histories commingle and the body becomes a thing to both scrutinize and laugh at. Harris is seen to question what it means to rearrange, depart and remove completely, as notions of how we reduce and machine the body are picked apart and reconstituted across form.
