Lucid meta-morphosis

2023

I created this work for BoulevArt, a three-day festival celebrating Art Dubai’s position as a hub for the global Web3 community, to be shown at Art in Space 360, a 360-degree space that engages all five senses.

It is a short AI video exploring aesthetics in a cyborg trans-human setting, inspired by the Renaissance, Nordic art and the Rococo. The immersive installation combines video, audio, aromas, light, fog and temperature into a multi-sensory experience.

Lucid meta-morphosis looks at the relationship between humanity, technology and the environment, and the importance of balance between them. Striking portraits of bio-cyber-humans, adorned with plant-like features, symbolise the interconnectedness of all living things and the idea of Wu Wei — natural action. The portraits are designed as ontological openings onto the potential for human evolution and the role technology may play in shaping our future.

Curated by Auronda Scalera and Alfredo Cramerotti, XXNFTwomen. Presented at ArtInSpace. AI technical support by AI Manifest. Original soundtrack by Marten Moses, remix by Florencia S.M. Brück.
