Baby robots in gestation...
|
Recent advancements in reproductive cloning associated with the arrival of the first artificial wombs for human, might soon allow the ectogenesis (pregnancy outside the body) envisioned by Aldous Huxley in his Brave New World. Human reproduction is likely to get rid of biological body. The installation "Demain les robots" (Robots, tomorrow) explores this prospective and proposes Matrix-like artificial wombs in which baby robots are growing. It depicts a futuristic dystopia where humans would have disappeared. |

Cronenberg-style organic pods, magnifiers and glasses fitted with polarizing filters allow the audience to catch a glimpse of this future through the looking glass. The sound of the baby’s heartbeat in utero resonates in the room accompanied with the sound of little bubbles in water. |
