The Released Body Parts' Autonomy

The Released Body Parts’ Autonomy (RBPA), is a group of my own body parts, which released themselves from my body in crucial moments of my development as I grew up. Those Body Parts were powerful enough to keep my trauma in captivity, repressed from my Body, to be uncovered only 20 years later, throughout the platform I made, as the artwork of BODY = The New Religion (BNR). Every “Body Part” has its own character, belief system, emotions, behaviors and a whole world view.

The Knee

“The Knee” was the first body part that revealed itself to me. While working on BNR, I noticed a few specific sketches appearing again and again in my notebooks and they all had a certain energy, their own “drive”, as if they had sketched themselves into existence. At some point, I understood that they are parts of myself and they are here to tell me something about my body. So I gave them different (body) names and started to speak to them. They opened a whole new path in my journey of self-discovery leading me and showing me my way to be mySelf.

The Released Body Parts' Autonomy

By the end of 2018, the Released Body Parts’ Autonomy were finally summoned with 12 different Body Parts - Knee, Thumb, Tongue, "B", Kid, NON, ONi, GOD, # MYWAY, OpenHeart, ?, and Torn A - Part. All of the combined create what I call today "Body Shlema" which is the Whole Body that I am.
