Photon project - 3D Mapping

We are artists dedicated to creating interactive media pieces that invite the public to question the world that is presented at face-value. More specifically, as women and non-binary folks evolving in typically male-dominated environments - development and engineering field, the music industry,video-game and fashion - we bond through our experiences of being undermined and distrusted on the basis of gender - so we use these expereices to explore and dismantle the perspectives of society.

Having felt unwelcome in a variety of creative spaces, it is important that our work in the collective feels approachable and intellectually and culturally accessible. The projects are easy-going, pleasant, human, inclusive, and emotional. The aim is to draw in individuals with limited art education or initial interest in art towards conceptual pieces while making them feel that their perspectives are paramount to the realization of the creative work. In turn their curiosity, wonder, puzzlement, and joy is ignited and empowered.

A common thread in our individual and group practices is the theme of questioning accepted cultural notions - those that are, at-first-glance, obvious - the mechanics in which society believes that the world functions and must function. In their music, Alana focuses on blurring the boundary between visual and sonic environments, in Marie-Christine’s fantastical fashion and digital art, wonder is woven through the textiles and 3D sculpture in a uniquely interactive mode. Justine’s projects aim to find creative solutions to complicated problems. These initiatives all require that we let go of what is, and that we start asking “what if?” and “why not?”

At the core, our collective shares a genuine curiosity for tinkering and making, a palpable satisfaction at seeing mechanical and electronic pieces fit together, and a resolute ambition to expand and investigate new possibilities and new skills in the field of computation arts.
