In this free HENI Project Space exhibition, the artist presents a new large-scale video installation composed of video works that focus on the vulnerability and instability of the body.
About
At once mimicking and critiquing the kind of idealised images that dominate today’s visual culture, Kate Cooper’s unsettling works explore gender, technology and the politics of labour.
Each video features computer-generated bodies drawn from the language of commercial image production. Over the course of each work, Cooper’s CGI figures take on different roles, change form, become sick and lose something of their previous perfection.
