Chiara Passa

Chiara Passa is a media artist exploring digital dimensions in architecture and sculpture through augmented and virtual reality since 1997. With an M.F.A. from the Fine Arts Academy of Rome and a Master's in Audio-Visual Media from the Faculty of Modern Literature. My artistic research is part of the mid-nineties’ revival of immersive art, exploring software as a creative medium from developing augmented reality applications to create immersive, interactive virtual reality installations. My artistic practice is deeply rooted in a lifelong fascination with space as a mutable entity, a dimension that can be reshaped and reimagined through the language of informatics. Over the years, I have forged a unique artistic language through immersive technologies, which now serve as the keystone of my creative expression.  Driven by a deep fascination with space and its transformation through digital languages, I use VR and AR to challenge static notions of architecture. My installations explore the liminal space between the tangible and the virtual, creating a dynamic interplay where the boundaries of physical space are extended and reconfigured.
