STRADDLING THE WORLDS OF FASHION, TECHNOLOGY AND THE BODY. THIS BODY ARCHITECT INVENTS AND BUILDS STRUCTURES AROUND THE BODY THAT RE-SHAPE THE HUMAN SILHOUETTE.
Taken from her website: Lucy McRae is an Australian artist exploring the relationship between the body, technology and the grey areas of synthetic and organic materials.. Each of her projects inhabits an artistic realm that draws heavily from readings and erudition in science, sculpture, digital technologies, architecture and fashion, informed by the fringes and extremes of our culture. Set on challenging the limits of the body, McRae manipulates the body’s natural structure to invent novel anatomical forms and adornments that are imbued with a haunting visceral realism that has become her creative insignia.
