Her home page: Rebecca Horn
I found this German artist, Rebecca Horn, whose art is focused on body extensions. I found her art to be interesting in terms of using different items to extend the body further into different materials, worlds and places. I found that the picture on the very right reminded me of one of my favorite movies, Edward Scissorhands. The main character has this scissorhands and he is not truly human and this reminded me of how he was created from a machine engineer's mind. His hands were made of scissors and his body I believe was to look human but was not. Rebecca Horn's art makes me think about how limiting the human form is at times and looking beyond it is something incredible and exciting.
