Héxis - 3D virtual exhibition by THE HOLY ART
Héxis
Globalization, social media and image capitalism lead us to erase differences, standardize physical characteristics, distances, everything becomes fluid.
My visual project comes from the need to reconsider and revise the concept of identity, in particular digital ID: it seems that in our society, if you don't exist online, you don't exist at all.
Catfishing, filters, apps that change face and body features: who are we looking at? What are we looking at?
Manipulated images of reality are not so dissimilar from those that are artificially created.
Do we still care if what we are looking at is real? Héxis focuses on ephemeral and evanescent images: through photography and modern AI technology, I have created a series of portraits in which the digital immateriality leaves us
questioning its potential unexpressed tangibility.
