"What if I am made of plexiglass?" is a 3D animation that explores the boundary between the physical and the digital using the artist's own face. The head, scanned through photogrammetry and transferred into the digital realm, takes on an unusual, translucent texture. In an infinite loop, three heads fall and collide, producing a strange, glass-like sound before returning to their original state.
The materials, which bear little resemblance to human flesh, transform the body into something entirely different. This distortion challenges the representation of the self in virtual spaces, where physicality is redefined, and the human form becomes malleable to the whims of digital physics. The piece considers how the body and identity are translated and transformed within these virtual environments
