 <\/p>\n

Artist Note:
\n“Moreau\u2019s Doctored Bodies<\/em> explores the strangeness and hybridity of our species, through a series of colourful visual poems embodying the heterogeneity of the genetic and cultural materials from which a human being is constructed. We consider ourselves separate from and above the animal kingdom, but we are not; Moreau\u2019s Doctored Bodies<\/em>\u00a0emphasises the base animality of\u00a0Homo sapiens<\/em>,<\/i> the fact that the diverse genetic materials that make us are shared, in different combinations, by other organisms. This rampant hybridity is reflected in the composition of the project; each visual poem results from physical and digital processes, and collages a wide range of materials, for example paintings in gouache and acrylic, and textual elements in various fonts and styles. Cut-up is a significant generative mode that plays out throughout the sequence, often overtly, in the form of photographs of tiny pieces of paper containing words and phrases, arranged sometimes chaotically and sometimes poetically, forming surreal sentences, hopeful literary monsters.”<\/p>\n
