A new exhibition at Auckland's Gus Fisher Gallery - Alter - invites international artists to "critically address the post-human" in a group exhibition of technoscientific art projects. Alter aims to provoke questions about relations between human and non-human, the virtual and the real. Deborah Lawler-Dormer is curating this exhibition as part of her PhD, for which she is working with Associate Professor Mark Sagar, at the University of Auckland, to build an avatar of herself.
