the CONTROL ROOM
Viktoria Modesta.Enter domain of all creation A vision of the future bridging wisdom of the past. Where strength is immaterial, and force resembles water In its reflection all serenity yields power.
Ascension of the feminine divine, awakened
It runs through you All forms are one
You are the interface Your creations serve a purpose It has begun
A speculative futures piece by Viktoria Modesta in a collaborative vision with the world's leading female VFX artists: Katie McIntyre and Nina Hawkins aka Ninocence.
This scene births VM's virtual identity - an avatar designed by Nina at Lillium Labs - reflecting on their moment of creation and their larger purpose in the metaverse. What can we learn from this visual representation of our split experience? Physical and digital augmentation pushes us further to question the essence of our identity in this increasingly tangible dimension of digital reality.
Standing in a serene womb-like virtual oasis designed by Katie McIntyre, representing a shift of values that define power, bringing nurture and connection with the body, our planet, and wellbeing into the space of innovation in science and technology. An opportunity to rediscover a different nature of control, affirming the importance of inclusion, a chance to heal and fill the void of women's voice within the leadership landscape.
Can the introduction of the feminist lens to futurism evolve a less destructive path of creation and evolve the language of design with an intention of symbiosis?
Viktoria has spent a lifetime researching the boundaries of human identity, reimagining the physical body while trying to understand the connection of this other 'self' - the emotional body, the spiritual body, the virtual body - all of whom form a larger construct of what becoming Future Human is.
