the „natural“ easy merges with the “technical”, a fantasy of a machine, when it concerns reproduction and the female body.

 

the female body is viewed as a resource, an utility. through medical manipulations, and chemistry the female body can be improved, artificially fertilised, pushed to the limits of its own “productivity”. it is undergoing a reductionist objectification process, wherein gradually the individual emotions, desires and longings of the beholder are being utterly eradicated.

let’s start an attempt to regain subjectivity, ritualistically connect with greater forces and allowing an expression of pain, fear an desire.
