Hybrid to Simulated Invention

Abstract

The article discusses the artist’s use of media in the creation of her artwork including Internet, sculpture, interactive installation, and digital photography. Her hybrid approaches offered the opportunity to combine the physical and virtual realm and in more recent work these overlaps are more complex, sophisticated, and slippery. Rather than a binary opposition of traditional versus non-traditional, real versus virtual, the work has progressed into embedding these overlaps in a more multi-layered, rich and liminal manner. It reflects upon our current relationship with technology, which is now a complex, porous living experience, where technology permeates every aspect of our lives.
