AUTOSOMA (from auto—self, and soma—body) is a suite of 12 prophetic artifacts tracing the condition of a body that has fused with its machines. Each work collapses the boundary between anatomy and hallucination—documenting a life lived in tandem with artificial extension. Bone, muscle, fluid, and synthetic surface merge into a single decaying system, neither wholly organic nor wholly artificial.
This is not symbiosis but annexation mistaken for evolution. The hand that operates the machine can no longer remember itself before the graft. The eye that perceives through filters cannot recall unmediated sight. What emerges is not enhancement but entanglement: the self as hijacked host, the body as its interface.
The suite operates as both archive and oracle—a record of irreversible transformation already underway.
