Introducing
Seraphina Voltaire
An underground french surrealist media artist who simulates glass sculptures through technology software. At the core of Voltaire's philosophy she states, "Technology is merely a tool in which I can capture the surreal divinity of nature intertwined with the modern world." Centered around the independence of the human mind from technology yet recognizing it's beauty and collaboration. In order to bring to life exquisite creations that intrigue the observer. It's the foundation of nature inspiring her to craft a modern surrealist interpretation of nature.
Voltaire seeks to bridge the profound inspiration found in nature with the surrealist potential unlocked by modern technology. Through her work, she explores how contemporary technological tools can be used to channel the divine, mysterious beauty of the natural world, transforming it into something transcendent and surreal.
At the core of her philosophy lies the idea that technology is not just a tool for creating but a conduit that enables a deeper understanding of nature. While nature itself is rich with textures, shapes, and forms. Often mysterious and unattainable in their full complexity. Modern technology allows her to capture and amplify these elements, reshaping them into surreal, dreamlike interpretations. Through her work, nature and technology converge in a new artistic language that reflects both the innovation of the modern world and the timeless beauty of the natural realm.
She draws from the latest advancements in software and digital modeling to simulate intricate glass sculptures. This process allows her to play with light, transparency, and reflection in ways that traditional sculptors could only dream of. Yet, despite the digital medium, her creations maintain a deep connection to the natural world, embodying forms that evoke the organic and ephemeral qualities of nature. Inspired by crystals, flora, the delicate curvature of organic matter, or the otherworldly patterns found in ecosystems. Her digital glass sculptures defy the physical limits of materiality, allowing her to conjure fantastical, weightless forms that still retain the elegance and fragility of glass but are freed from its constraints.
For her, this interplay between technology and nature is not one of substitution but of enhancement. The modern innovations of software powered by algorithms, 3D rendering, and computational simulations. Allowing her to create new visual languages that express nature’s beauty in ways that traditional art forms cannot. The software becomes a bridge: a mechanism that helps her sculpt not just a direct representation of nature, but a surrealist reimagining that pushes the boundaries of perception. Through digital tools, she is able to unlock layers of abstraction and surrealism that mirror the complexity, unpredictability, and divinity of the natural world itself.
