Sobre virtualidades e hibridos

2022-23

An exploration of hybrid forms between the virtual and the physical, examining the boundaries where digital and organic systems meet and merge. Using 3D scanning, photogrammetry, and AI image generation techniques, the work creates hybrid specimens that exist between the biological and the computational — organisms that could belong to a speculative natural history collection, blurring the distinction between documented reality and fabricated taxonomy.
