At the Adelaide Festival in 1995, about 30 women donated body parts by scanning their chosen flesh and digitally recording sound. From these, conglomerate bodies were created, animated and made interactive in Linda Dement’s 'Cyberflesh Girlmonster'.
Nearly 30 years later, On-Site artist Xanthe Dobbie invites you to do the same. In this workshop, participants can scan their bodies onsite or come equipped with images of their bodies or other body like objects to collage into a fleshy monster.
Afterwards, participants are invited to confess a story, an idea or a sound via their creation.
No art experience necessary, spots limited.
