Milo Moiré (born 1983) is a Swiss conceptual artist known for her nude performances and the use of her body in her art. Moiré was born in Switzerland, of Slovak and Spanish origin, but works from Düsseldorf, Germany. She has an Art Academy background and a master's degree in psychology from University of Bern in Switzerland (magna cum laude). In June 2014, for The Script System No. 2, Moiré travelled to Art Basel naked with the names of items of clothing marked on her body in paint; she was refused entry, forcing her to dress to enter the exhibition. Of The Script System, she has said "it is inspired by the script theory of cognitive psychology. Each of us knows these scripts, recurrent, stereotyped action sequences, after which we work every day. These blindness I wanted to break through my performance." #thewomensbody #performer #artbasel #nakedwoman #psychology
