Man possesed

This person was consumed by a powerful entity known as a Jiin & transformed into a creature with antlers. A 3D modeling tool called SculptGL was used to warp the mesh of a male figure's head and torso. This project was created during the Prototype Camp at FACT Liverpool in October 2017, where young people responded to the Designing Desire exhibition and the installation 'She Who Sees the Unknown', a reading room featuring images & text from Middle Eastern mythologies surrounding Jiin's. "Aeisheh Ghediseh (or Aisha), the female jinn at the center of Allahyari's work for Designing Desire, is said to create a fissure on the male body as a sensual and erotic way to transform him into another being, forcing him to serve as a conduit between worlds. When she possesses a man, she does not entirely take over his new host but opens him up to a tempest of incoming jnun and jinns and magical particles of all kinds; making the man a gateway for new demons, for sweeping cosmic data. This is why she is feared. And she never leaves – she always resides in the man to guarantee his total openness, which is not always pleasant." FACT's Learning Programme experiments with the concept of the art-tech center as an expanded classroom for lifelong learning, a space for critical dialogues, artistic experiences and social dreaming.
