Homonovus investigates how digital tools can reshape the idea of the human body by blending it with non-human characteristics. This series of sculptures questions the stability of biological identity in a digital age, presenting a “New Man” that exists between the organic and the synthetic.
To translate this speculative evolution into physical form, I developed a hybrid workflow. Using high-resolution 3D scans of five subjects, I manually layered animal textures onto reduced low-poly meshes. I then utilized a computational process to ‘unfold’ these complex forms into printable patterns. The resulting objects: hollow, laser-cut, and hand-assembled, stand as fragile artifacts of a digital metamorphosis.
