Extended body artist: Disfigured gender and loss of identity

In an article about monstrous bodies, by Yvonne Volkart, delves into the art of Aziz and Cucher's Faith, Honor and Beauty, a digital painting done to comment on the body no longer needing sexual parts and almost becoming ken and barbie like people. I thought this was interesting in terms of it commenting on gender and femininity and masculinity in our culture. These artist challenge this by putting the over masculine male with no nipples, little body hair and no genitals with a gun in his hand. Although this is not "extending the body" persay it is challenging the body and limiting it to equalize things amongst people which I find interesting as well as challenging my thinking. The article is pretty long and this is part of the "monstrous bodies" portion which I felt was something negative but in their stance they see it as challenging these ideas of cyborg bodies on an equal playing field somewhat.
