ORLAN is a French multi-media artist who uses sculpture, photography, performance, video, video games, augmented reality, artificial intelligence, and robotics as well as scientific and medical techniques such as surgery and biotechnology to question modern social phenomena.
She has said that her art is not body art, but 'carnal art,' which lacks the suffering aspect of body art.
