Simon Robertshaw

London

Most of my work has been engaged in a critical engagement with both the technologies to construct my practice and the question concerning technology itself. Much of my work can be seen as a process of mapping and re-mapping the nature of the modern subject - as a contemporary archaeology of the conditions under which we represent ourselves to ourselves, and identify 'others', within discourses of contemporary science.
