ABOUT
The virtual exhibition GEBURT_to animate investigates the inside of the functional female body as the cultural place of genesis – as a nest of conception and term carriage regarding new life. The biological gender constructions and their effects on social issues, conditions of procreation and natural or artificial birth is of interest. The biological development process of the human bodies can also be seen as a metaphor for artistic development processes and the variety of their results.
While the human process of childbirth is accompanied by real blood, „Lifeblood" flowing with the birth of art - an "animation" of the thoughts.
