THIS IS NOT A MASK by Marcel·lí Antúnez

120,00

We invited the Catalan artist Marcel·lí Antúnez Roca – internationally renowned for his mechatronic performances and performative installations– to purpose a design that speaks about our contemporary issues. This mask can either be framed as the artwork that it is, or it can also be worn, as it incorporates a Repsilon nano-filter, one of the most efficient in the market.

This mask reproduces part of the “muskeleton”, the muscle exoskeleton that Antúnez wore during his performance Epizoo (1994). The Epizoo performance enables the spectator to control Marcel·lí’s body by means of a mechatronic system. .One of the ideas behind this creation was to find an answer to the tragic problem of the AIDS epidemic. The muskeleton of Epizoo proposes remote carnal contact without touching and therefore free from contagion.

Each edition is limited to 100, and will be accompanied by a signed letter of authenticity from the artist. Proceeds from sales will be destined to fund our Art & Science projects.
