Description

Due to unexpected events, this event has been CANCELLED. Lucy McRae is a sci-fi artist, designer, body architect, and filmmaker placing the human body in complex, futuristic scenarios that confound the boundaries between the natural and artificial. Her approach is to influence culture by exploring scientific breakthroughs relating to health and the human body, while providing a feminine point of view on emerging technology. Inventor of Swallowable Parfum, McRae is recognized as an early identifier of emerging technologies that drive product innovation. McRae led Philips Electronics Future Lab and has consulted with companies such as Procter & Gamble, Unilever, Intel, and Aesop. McRae encourages scientific conversation where science and technology meet the body, throwing into question "What makes us Human?"
