Post-Organic Bauplan & Axonbody

Fase de Cicatrización

In this video work, the artists of Post-Organic Bauplan, in cooperation with artist Simon Kounovsky (Axonbody), give an insight into their practice, which combines performance and robotics. They design and build robotic prostheses. Using technology, they design extensions of the human body that are influenced by biological processes but not represented as something natural.

In the last phase of cicatrisation, fibroblasts form a new layer to replace lost tissue. This secretion not only forms a scar that persists visibly, but also alters the local sensitivity and thus the memory of the body.
