Through a generative interactive setup, Bodymetries proposes a map of the human body adapted to each person’s body shape. In real time, spectators see a living organism appear on the skin of their arms, which grows from their beauty spots. Taking inspiration from the work of Marshall McLuhan, this work explores the body as an “experimental laboratory”.

Theresa Schubert is a post-media artist whose exploratory work lies at the crossroads of art and science. She studied Fine Art at the University of Newcastle, Australia, then Media Art and Design at the Bauhaus University of Weimar in Germany. Her work combines audiovisual and hybrid media in conceptual, immersive installations, or in interventions on site. These bio-poetic works, which treat natural phenomena as a real creative process, offer visitors new interactions.
