Lauren Lee McCarthy’s (2019 Awardee) Creative Capital project Bodily Autonomy presents two major works that spark conversation about bodily autonomy. In Surrogate, she offers herself as a remote-controlled surrogate for people who want to have a child. In Saliva, visitors can exchange saliva samples, bypassing the anonymity of medical and corporate data collection.
