- Name:
- Zero Ball
- About Me:
- Zero Ball is available for commissions. Price is neg, any project considerd. Please IM me for a chat about projects or SL based art in general.
Zero Ball is currently the Artist in residence at The Librarium. His works areon view at the Symposium in Abitibi. Artlife Gallery, The Ginsberg and Choas and Beauty fractal gallery.
My new exhibition is currently available at the Artlife^3 Gallery and SS Galaxy.
Zero Ball is an artist based entirely in the online virtual world of Second Life. In fact, Zero has never exhibited any work outside of SL. It was only in the virtual world that he connected to his potential for sculpture and found an untapped vain of creativity.
The view inside the sculptures as experienced by the avatar is an elegantly mysterious immersive shift in the already virtual reality. And yes, the sculptures are for sale using Linden dollars, the currency of Second Life.
Zero's sculptures are ethereal and dream-like.
Like love, the sculptures are also interactive. To fully experience them you, as a viewer, must experience them through an avatar in Second Life.
Zero uses a mix of textures that are based on water and metal found in old photographs or created in Photoshop. He applies the digital textures to sculpted shapes made using the Second Life building material of "prims," short for primitive objects. Zero activates the prim shapes with the scripting language of Second Life. Zero has installed an interactive suite of these romantic dreamy interactive sculptures in a SL gallery space.
For a gallery in the real world to present Meta Dimensional Artwork, the artists envision a number of computers hooked up to a giant screen. Each computer will control a section of the sculpture installation. The artist would then help the viewers use avatar to interact with the kinetic sculptures inside the virtual world.
