Description: Portrait of a young girl, painted in digital-bright blocks of color. Through 3D scanning she was brought into virtual suspension, no past, no future, only the frozen now. Her expressive face, captured in a moment. And as her unseen physical self ages, she remains. A holographic screen allows her to remain eerily present.
Auriea Harvey (USA/BE, 1971) is a digital artist and sculptor living and working in Rome. Her practice encompasses virtual and physical artworks created with a blend of digital and handmade production. Drawing from her extensive experience in net art and video games, she brings a synthesis of mythology, autobiography, art historical reference and imagination – made visible through form, interaction and immersion. Auriea is engaged across time, media, and material to define what sculptural production means in the present moment.
