NEW SKIN by Mayumi Hosokura Mayumi Hosokura's collection

About the productJapanese

A collection of works by Japanese photographer Mayumi Hosokura.
Deeply influenced by the writings of Donna Haraway, the work offers new ways of thinking about identity, the body and desire.
The basis of the book is a huge digital collage made by assembling gay magazine clippings, photographs of statues, found selfies and a deliberate selection of images of men taken by the artist himself.
The collage is cut into 12 sections, and the resulting fragments blur the boundaries between male and female, human and animal, living and non-living.
This hybrid film offers a new concept of what it means to be human, undermining the social norms that stifle desire.
The artist draws on feminist theory and the latest technological innovations to map out the future of the body in an ever-evolving digital and biotechnological era.
