Thorns is a digital sculpture of a glitched, fragmented figure reaching for the sky covered in bright red thorns. This piece was inspired by Lucio Fontana's idea of "slashing" artwork. Similarly, I use glitch in this piece to slash apart the model's geometry, creating jagged sharp points that extend outward from the model's surface.
An extended reality (XR) piece created for /Spatial ("slash-spatial") - the exhibition considering the emergence of Spatial Computing, through the reinterpretation of seminal works by art's original Spatialist, Lucio Fontana (1899 – 1968).
/Spatial was commissioned for objkt.one and had an augmented reality show at Tech Contemporary, Copenhagen, with simultaneous shows in the Decentraland, Hyperfy, and OnCyber virtual worlds. 25th April - 1st May 2024.
/Spatial was curated by Bay Backner and Damir First, and commissioned by Kika Nicolela.
