Description

Martina Menegon Let the Harpy Rise: Harphelia 2025 Virtual Sculpture (.html), Augmented Reality A glitched self-portrait born from the bones of extinct owl-birds, artificial algorithms, and 3D scans of my own body. This techno-mythic ritual of reassembly conjures a chimera: Harphelia. Part me, part owl, she unsettles reality with stillness and rupture. Her rage is quiet and strategic. She cuts by withholding. Not to be underestimated, she breaks the system by refusing to function. Shaped through layering, distortion, and code, Harphelia resists coherence. She takes space within extended cracks, hovering in the in-betweens. She is also a warning, an unstable presence for unstable times. “There are no owls,” so the harpies emerge. This virtual sculpture is one of many elements within a larger, evolving body of work tied to my ongoing research project "Becoming Chimeric". While this iteration is offered as a singular 3D sculpture (.html) with AR capabilities, it is both artwork and foundational fragment, a base element from which future versions will emerge and take form in other artworks. Glitched and chimeric by nature, the work resists fixity and embraces continual becoming.
