Biography
Auriea Harvey is a digital artist and sculptor living and working in Rome. Her practice encompasses virtual and tangible sculptures, drawings and simulations that blend digital and handmade production including 3D printing, augmented and virtual reality.
Drawing from her extensive experience in net art and video games in the collaborative groups Entropy8Zuper!, Tale of Tales, and Song of Songs, she brings personal narratives and character development to her practice. She is primarily concerned with making the mythological world visible through form, interaction and immersion. Her works are a synthesis of art historical reference and imagination. She is engaged across time, media, and material to define what sculptural production means in the present moment.
Her work can be found in the permanent collections of the Whitney Museum, Buffalo AKG Art Museum, Walker Art Center, KADIST Collection, RF.C Collection, and Rhizome’s Net Art Anthology. Her videogames and mixed reality works have had international success, including exhibitions at the Tinguely Museum, Basel; the Victoria & Albert Museum, London; the New Museum, New York; and ZKM, Karlsruhe.
