{"attributes":[{"trait_type":"Artist","value":"Auriea Harvey"},{"trait_type":"Artwork","value":"The Sacrifice"}],"description":"Auriea Harvey’s practice exists in and between the real and virtual and *The Unanswered Question* situates both realms of existence on the same plane not as simulacrum, but as a suspension of disbelief. Scale plays an important role within the collapse of real and virtual as the artist manifests her digital compositions as an expansive scrollable landscape. Each work is a collage of polygonal models, derived from 3D scans and arranged into scenes using “kitbashing”, a technique from the practice of model-making that forms all parts into a whole and celebrates the simple lighting and highlights of each figure’s digital nature. This process offers the artist the opportunity to interject her personal sculptures into classical narratives.\n\nLayered amongst *The Sacrifice* are scans of the outside walls of Rome’s Ara Pacis Augustae and a sacrificial bull from the Parthenon marbles alongside her digital sculptures *Minomirror (canceled)* and *The Mystery v3*.\n","image":"https://0prod.infura-ipfs.io/ipfs/bafybeiaaz66hn3py3mcmrhylggqfv5q54xyp7hukk3cdk2n57p6rfvjfma","ipfs":"https://0prod.infura-ipfs.io/ipfs/bafybeiaaz66hn3py3mcmrhylggqfv5q54xyp7hukk3cdk2n57p6rfvjfma","license":"","name":"The Sacrifice #1"}
