Godesosa: Intersexuality, Character Creation & Queer Inhumanism


Listen Later

Artist Esosa Odia, known as Godesosa on Instagram, creates ‘characters’ through various digital software that read as posthuman figurations as they merge the organic with the natural to create notions of bodies from the future or another world. Godesosa uses their art as a way to work through their experience of being intersex, and to reimagine their body in alternative nonhuman ways. They use 3D rendering to create realistic bodily mutations that challenge normative ideas of the ‘the human’ and disintegrate binaries between human/nonhuman, organic/technological, male/female.
