Creating multi-screen video instalments typified by their unsettling, at times nerve racking-going-on-nightmarish nature, visual artist Ed Atkins explores the relationship between pixilated bodies and its fleshy counterpart. Easing viewers into hyperreal-realms, he provokes and teases out grimacing sensations about the failing body whilst addressing the impeding quality of technology and the traces it leaves on human life. Physical borders between the virtual and the corporeal seize to exist in Ed’s captivating and intensely intimate installations such as ‘Ribbons’ (2014), set in London’s renowned Serpentine Sackler Gallery, where we’re confronted with the gaze of an astonishingly lifelike avatar.
