The famous ancient greek sculpture: the Discos Thrower reimagined. With the advances of technology the perfect body is being redefined in front of our eyes.
This personal project started off on the idea that many of the ancient sculptures that survived through modernity have some of their limbs missing. The broken statues even inspired Rodin, he said: “These are the damaged statues, found in the ruins, and they are no less masterpieces for being incomplete.”
Building on that initial idea I wanted to imagine how modern technology and advancement in prosthetic limbs could shape what a statue like that might look today.
