Synthetic bodies laid bare. Wires for veins, circuits for guts, mannequin skin that almost passes for real – until it doesn’t.
unca_nniness captures artificial beings in states they were never designed for: vulnerability, tenderness, something like dreaming. These aren’t machines performing tasks. They’re machines caught off-guard; mid-repair, mid-collapse, mid-thought.
The images oscillate between clinical dissection and intimate care. Renaissance anatomy lesson meets silicon pietà. Francis Bacon’s body horror rendered in plastic and cable. What begins as technical exposure becomes emotional: the more you see inside, the closer you feel.
A technological life cycle unfolds across the collection, from assembly to maintenance, from physical to metaphysical. Each frame asks: where does repair end and ritual begin? Can maintenance become meditation? Is there a consciousness flickering behind those misaligned eyes?
Speculations about what machines might feel.
