LUCY MCRAE / BODY ARCHITECT

http://www.lucymcrae.net/

Lucy McRae is an Australian artist, designer and compulsive inquisitor. Over time, she has fused her training as a classical ballerina with an inherent fascination with the body, and forged a unique profession: Body Architect.

McRae, based in Amsterdam, takes the human body as her canvas. Each project inhabits an artistic realm that straddles the worlds of sculpture, architecture, science, and fashion design, manipulating the body’s natural structure to invent novel anatomical forms.
