Metaphrasis

2022

If we take the material and the immaterial to be two different languages:

  • How does a maker act as translator?
  • What does this role involve?
  • Which properties are lost in translation?

In this project, I am translating between:

 

Concept (immaterial) → Ceramic object (material) → Digital object (immaterial)

 

The exhibition is the culmination of these objects.

Works Featured:

  • VR modelled Object
  • Ceramic Sculpture (60 x 30 x 95 cm)
  • Video of VR modelling process, projected on to two screens (150 x 210 cm)

Still from VR modelling process
