No one has a perfect appearance, we only exist a mind that seek for a perfect appearance. Plastic surgery itself satisfies the narcissistic instinct that you love or admire yourself “ self lover” , to an interest in or concern with the self along a broad continuum. Carnal art as same as well. Plastic surgery can be also one of the carnal art. Our “ideal appearance” is no longer seen as an ideal image, but it accomplish as an modification of an already made object. Slide3
At the same time, if we seen plastic surgery as a art work which is made by plastic surgeon, a
money
relationship occurred since we use money to buy this art from plastic surgeon.Slide4
What is “ Carnal Art”?
Carnal
Art is a self-portrait in the classical sense, yet realized through the technology of its time. Lying between disfiguration and figuration, it is an inscription in flesh, as our age now makes possible. No longer seen as the ideal it once represented, the body has become an 'modified ready-made'.
Carnal
Art opposes the social pressures that are exerted upon both the human body and the corpus of
art.
Artist:
Orlan
(French artist) Slide5

Motivation
I want to make an art work about plastic surgery because I want to
to
change my face into my ideal
face but of course I wont do it in the reality. Moreover, I am not decided to make it as same as
Orlan’s
art work with a exaggerated performance. On the other hand,
if I do plastic surgery, how would I look like?
And how
much does it cost
? Also ,I
want to
satirize that we
can even buy our appearance using money nowadays
