Agency, consent + biopower in the foreign bodies of the Pharmacopornographic Era for Corpus Alienum at Hunter Shaw

Featuring Hayden Dunham, Don Edler and Amanda Vincelli, the installation includes sculptural and 2D works that probe topics from “agency, biopower, and consent” to “biological personhood in the contemporary consumer landscape.”

The show is named after the medical term for and object originating outside the body of an organism and responds to the definition of a corporation as “a group of people authorized to act as a single entity and recognized as such in law.” It brings together work exploring ecological disaster and industrial byproduct, Paul B. Preciado‘s ‘Pharmacopornographic Era,’ and gender fluidity, among other things.**
