In a world where we find ourselves existing alongside our digital avatars, there's an unfolding narrative of the plurality of our identities. Digital fashion sits at this crossroads, and our latest podcast episode delves into its depths. We question whether this domain uplifts the many facets of human diversity or magnifies our insecurities with digitally enhanced ideals.
Harriet Davey is a Berlin-based 3D artist who has gained recognition for her stunning, otherworldly creations. Her work reimagines the human form in beautiful, expansive ways, creating a world that is just a little more glistening, a little more light-filled, and a little more alien-like. She has worked for clients such as Maison Margiela and DRESS X. She is a part of the DIGI-GXL Collective.
"Post-human is like a realization of the human figure outside of the real world, not that the online or the virtual isn't the real world. It's just like virtualization."
- Harriet Davey
"Digital fashion is communicated as an alternative to excessive consumption and refers to sustainability. Is this also presented as a domain where plurality and diversity can be celebrated? Some digitally enhanced bodies perpetuate body dysmorphia and gave rise to many more plastic surgeries."
- Beata Wilczek
