Artist Lucy McRae leads a multi-disciplinary, art-research studio investigating the impact future technologies have on human evolution. Boldly staring down the status quo, Lucy pioneers a new story for how future technologies will fundamentally alter human intimacy, reproduction, spirituality, biology and health — shining light on the ethical implications of genetic engineering. Lucy’s work diversifies the predictive voices we traditionally call ‘science’ and ‘technology’, through designing hypothetical worlds that use speculation as a tool to provoke an exploration of ideologies and ethics about who we are, and where we are headed.
