Trans Genesis: Evaporations and Mutations at Vilma Gold, Lynn Hershman Leeson presents a combination of works spanning from 1968.
In her Cyborg series mechanical elements, identity numbers, and technological symbols are superimposed on the faces and body parts of women, making them into half-human and half robotic female forms. These images are manipulated using a wide variety of techniques and effects and represents bodies transformed by computer-based technologies - this seems relevant looking into the present day where we photoshop every girl ever put in a magazine.
