CONSTRUCT
"Thanks to technological progress, longevity and immortality no longer seem so exaggerated. Many large companies are currently working on these topics. The most "sci-fi" idea of all is that in the future you will be able to download your mind and upload it into a new synthetic body.If that happened one day, it would mean you could be immortal. Construct is my visual representation of a mind that "lives" in cyberspace before being uploaded into a new body."
Creative Process behind Construct: 1.) The background is a generative art created using Processing software, 2.) the Construct is 3D modelled by a program and carved by hand, and 3) The void is 100% hand-painted by Hiroji.
