Bio & info
I'm an Italian new media artist and designer based in Rotterdam. My practice centers around CGI-based visual storytelling, presented through video installations and printed matter. My works combine critical design and research-based approach with an intuitive and experimental use of digital techniques. I am interested in the internalization of technological processes within the data-driven landscape and their psycho-cultural impact on the late capitalist subject. Especially how individuals are subjected to interpretation, labeling, and representation through digitization and the logic of self-optimization. I am drawn to 3D CGI imagery, captivated by the magical quality of constructing immersive digital scenes—fascinated equally by the illusion of boundless creative freedom and the constraints imposed by software limitations and machine power.
I am open to collaborations! Send me an email at levaratosara@gmail.com
