Floratopia I
Single Channel Animation, 14m 15s
The intricately constructed virtual worlds of Floratopia are populated by multitudes of de-individualized moving figures trapped in an uncanny life: bodies enacting seemingly endless cryptic cyclic rituals, existing in a marginal state, neither dead nor undead. Proliferating avatars inhabit a range of environments where existence is either tenuous or wholly subsumed into a synthetic ecosystem. These spaces can be psychological landscapes, representations of hermetic digital colonies (fluctuating between utopian and the dystopian), or figures enacting an enigmatic ceremonial.
