First UK solo exhibition of Australianartist Patricia Piccinini includes five new large-scale sculptural works a
longside earlier works dating from 2005 to 2011. Piccinini’s work encompass
es sculpture, photography, video and drawing and examines the increasingl
y blurred boundary between the artificial and the natural as it appears in
contemporary culture. Through her work she explores both our desire to huma
nise technology and perfect or homogenise the human body, and challenges o
ur capacity to accept those who don’t measure up to a manufactured idea of
perfection.
