The incorporation of meaning
The artist, from the French duo Art Orienté objet (Art Object oriented), shows in this text how lived experiences have gradually change her artistic approach in the search of an ever-increasing incorporation of the meaning. She recounts these experiences that range from biotechnological art with biopsy or skin culture, ethology and animal communication, anthropology with the shamanic initiation, and initiation to the Gabon Pygmies rites which consist in a Near-Death experiment, to finish with the biotech experience of self-injection of horse blood serum. These radical experiments, discussed here with an artistic point-of-view as much as a psychological and anthropological one, question frontally the concept of post-humanity through the notion of otherness. They propose an enlargement of human consciousness definition with an attempt to perceive the extra-human senses, the one of the animal in particular.
