Immersive forest,  2024


Immersive Forest presents an artificial vision of nature, drawing on the pictorial heritage of romantic paintings, where nature is both sublimated and untamed. This series engages in a dialogue between contemporary technological approaches and pictorial heritage, questioning how digital art redefines our relationship to landscape. It offers a new reading of landscape representation that interrogates the nature of the image. The vegetation, immersed in a misty atmosphere, conveys a certain strangeness and adds a phantasmagoric tone. The generative chimeras draw the viewer’s gaze into a mythified forest, questioning the ambivalence between artifice and authenticity in virtual reverie. The work also explores how digital art and artificial intelligence can not only prolong but also reinterpret ancient visual traditions to renew our perception of the landscape.
