Post Human x Mexico City
The term ‘Post Human’ is used to describe modes of being, resulting from potential enhancements to human nature generated through applied science and technological developments. We’re beginning to live in a world we’re used to seeing in our science fiction films and books, what we might call the Post-Human Age, or Singularity, in which the line between humans and tech is no longer distinguishable.
A juxtaposition of secular works of art with erotica, religion and the future. Post Human in the wildest sense of the word: from the seemingly mundane, to the grim and eerily strange to the distorted and fascinatingly dark. Tobias Ross-Southall, a contemporary artist, filmmaker and curator would like to present an exploration of the pursuit of ‘Post Human’ in his own work and that of his contemporaries.
A cross-continental conversation between 22 contemporary artists from Mexico, the USA and the UK. The exhibition was held at Dolores 54, Mexico City.
