Hybrid Skins Combines Fashion With Nanotechnology And Cloning

Combining fashion with advances in nanotechnology, genetic manipulation and cloning, the exhibition ”Hybrid Skins” displays futuristic visions of a new world. The creepy, animalistic pieces envision a time where the body and nature are able to be copied and personalized. But is your body and genetic code your property that you may copy, remix and destroy? This is only one of the many moral questions this show raises. “Hybrid Skins” is located at Tetem Art Space in EnschedeNetherlands and features works by Anouk Wipprecht and Daniel Schatzmayr, Local Androids, Jalila Essaïdi, Lucy Mcrae, Nancy Tilbury (Studio XO), Bart Bess, Harm Rensink, Clive Van Heerden, Jack Mama, Peter Gal, Philips, Anna Dumitriu, Marieka Ratsma and The Verge.
