Milika Muritu works with a variety of materials, both sculptural and digital, to plan and realise her work. Her animated and looped video Pleomorphic "transforms the weekend clubbers and Hoxtonophiles in Charlie Wright's bar, into dead-eyed, jerking puppets." In her sculptural works " the DNA code is used to build a metal surface or skin, an inhuman body from a science fiction film. These may be the second skins we alreay wear, as old distinctions of class and ethnicity are replaced by new divisions of social being, of the kind which separate the 'knowledge worker' from the rootless underclass produced by successive technological revolutions"(Malcolm Quinn in the book Counter, iMMprint publishers, London, 2000).
