Attract and repel, they are unknown creatures, bodies that appear in the flesh, but presented as a mutation, a hybrid or a distortion of what we recognize as normal. In a world determined to humanize technology and homogenizing the human body to eliminate any uncomfortable difference, the works challenge the viewer with a look that is far from the ideal of perfection. The Carrier (Carrier), a work in glass-reinforced plastic, silicone, human hair and fabric has an old unconventionally transported by a being with human hominid features and look. It combines his fascination with medical science and biotechnology with the fears and concerns of modern society such as the appearance, aging and disease-related nature but unnaturally treated. The application of animal characteristics, the absence of face, atrophied limbs and flabby muscles are a personification of disgust generated malformation and physical decline. Strange scenes refer to the universal instinct to apply our own emotions species of animals and things. Piccinini wonders with that series of surrealist works between science fiction and how technology is changing our understanding of what it means to be human and also changes our relationships with others.To see the video on Jose Garcia Cordero: https://youtu.be/Cb12HmBrYW4To see the video on Urban Art: https://youtu.be/z8bRds5PqwEmilyb14f5820b8b6ed9d550df8753cc77d108ce8f6ff
