Description
Additional Info.

What makes us human? What is the relationship between human and machine? What does it mean when these boundaries blur and people ultimately even feel desire for machines?

Clement’s most recent series, mould, manifests itself in the exhibition space as a logical consequence and drastic extension of these initial questions. Sex robots cast in bronze lie and stand, encountering us staunchly and shamelessly. These days, they are mass produced, can be ordered with a few mouse clicks, and, if desired, can be custom-made to match individual proclivities. The dummies, with a body of a silicon-like material and outfitted with artificial intelligence, respond to their users, note the users’ preferences, and promise the ultimate pleasure.

The original casting molds – the negative forms – are reversed into positive constructions and then cast. The absence of the dummies‘ physical bodies produces empty husks, castings that become dead matter – a form of human resistance between the total economization, disempowerment, and objectification of the body.

On the opening weekend of June 12 to June 13, 2020 the gallery will remain open from 11 am till 6 pm. To make an appointment please contact us via email or phone (lab@eigen-art.com /+49.30.308.779.40).
During the exhibition the EIGEN + ART Lab will be open from Tuesday to Friday from 11 am until 2 pm and on Saturdays from 11 am until 6 pm and by appointment.
Please keep in mind the minimum distance of 1,5 meters and don’t forget your face mask
