Ever since her student years at Kunstakademie Dusseldorf, Louisa
Clement (b. 1987) has investigated the transformation of human
communication, especially in digital space and social media. One of
her primary interests is the increasingly widespread display of
idealised self-portraits. For her most recent work, entitled
Reprasentantinnen/ Representative, Clement has created copies of
herself that are as fascinating as they are unsettling. In
collaboration with a Chinese company specialising in the
manufacture of sex dolls, she commissioned life-sized manikins to
be made based on parameters of her body that were calculated with
the help of body scans, microphotographs, and video recordings of
movements. With movable parts and sexually functional, these dolls
not only have the same face as their creator, but are programmed to
imitate the artist's facial expressions and to communicate and
interact with spectators and the surrounding world This publication
documents Clement's work and explores various technical,
psychological, economic, and ethical questions raised by it. The
book also features a sound box that allows it to interact with its
readers. Text in English and German.
