For over fifty years, Stelarc FAHA’s work has challenged and extended upon our understanding of what it means to be human, and how we understand our bodies by integrating technology, prosthetics and implants to augment and extend the human body.
Stelarc has performed and exhibited in Japan, Korea, China, Europe, South America and the USA. His early work includes his 1973-1976 project mapping his internal landscape, which filmed 3 metres of his stomach, lungs and colon. In 1995, for Fractal Flesh at “Telepolis”, Stelarc’s body was remotely choreographed using muscle stimulation. People in the Pompidou in Paris, the Media Lab in Helsinki and the Doors of Perception in Amsterdam were able to access his body remotely and interact with it.
