Abstract
Prosthesis points to an addition, a replacement, and also an extension, enhancement, transcendence.
Prosthesis points to subtraction, the creation of a void, a need, disability, deficiency.
This thesis explores the ways in which the body and technology come into contact with one another and are incorporated, integrated, fused and reciprocal. It seeks to negotiate the slippage space within these contrasting stand points and propose that the body and its otherness was always already one.
