The Moulds – dark bronze cast covers of sex dolls – touch on an anthropological constant, a longing from which the effect produced by art itself is also derived, but in doing so they echo a persistent claim of availability paired with an omnipresent logic of exploitation. During the production process, Clement routinely photographed the shells, but discovered that her cell phone camera reproduced the concave hollow forms as convex volumes.
