In a speculative future where humanity sheds its organic "meatsuit" in favour of digital consciousness and mechanised perception, flesh may come to feel alien—an obsolete relic of a former existence. Alicja’s installation reflects on this potential rupture by presenting flesh-like forms that mimic the aesthetic of human anatomy yet remain fundamentally other. Lacking sentience, these creatures are stripped of agency, reduced to objects of spectacle. They pulse, twitch, and breathe, but only under human control—observed like specimens in a cage, animated for entertainment. Through this disquieting display, Alicja examines the ethics of disconnection: what becomes of flesh once we no longer identify with it?
