In the body, we feel who we are. Through corporeal reality, sentient beings develop awareness and cognizance of existence, place and meaning. The body is the gateway to human consciousness. In CORPUS PERSPICUUS: BODY TRANSPARENT, three artists, Thekla Hammond, Cheryl Calleri and Tobin Keller, limn the human figure in a contemporary medium to explore their views of consciousness. Awareness, which is complex, many layered and transitory, is experienced in transparent, reflective and mobile acrylic materials. Through the body we move from sensations to emotions to ideas of being – feeling who we are.
corpus perspicuus: body transparent
Hammond’s installation is a narrative about the experience of separation and connection.
Human sensory receptors, their structure and physiology, are the focus of Calleri’s work.
