QCA Art: Mikel Marton’s Intimate Machinery

There’s something both erotic and menacing about Mikel Marton’s Intimate Machinery. The contrast between tender human flesh and hard-edged computer parts evoke the dichotomies of organic and artificial, man and machine, warm and cold, analog and digital. In this age of increasing computerization, where we the line between the two is vanishing, the cybernetic age seems not too far off. What this means for sex and human relationships reaches the furthest limits of the imagination.
