Spores As a reflection on our increasingly digitised and hyperconnected world, ‘Spores’ is a collection of digital experiments, inspired by video-game alchemy and the healing properties of nature and botanics. They use computer-generated textures, produced by photogrammetric scans of plants and flowers to offer a mediative remedy for our ever-increasing screen time. These original images were the conceptual seeds which grew into Fan’s sculptural work ‘Garden 3’, print works ‘Seeping Out’ and video works, ‘Spore’ and ‘Antidote’. They are offered now in NFT form as collectible digital relics the inspired so much of her body of work.
Sian Fan is an interdisciplinary artist working in London. She holds an MFA degree from Central Saint Martins, where she was awarded the prestigious Mona Hatoum Scholarship and was nominated for the Nova Award. She has exhibited internationally with venues including Tate Modern, British Council, and the ICA, as well as producing work with Channel 4, the BBC and Google. Her work combines movement, the female body and technology to explore embodiment, spirituality and human experience in the digital age. She works across mediums, combining the physical and the virtual through sculpture, performance, animation, moving image and virtual & augmented reality, and seeks to create works that heighten our awareness of the experience of being online. She is fascinated by virtual identities, and in how we construct virtual bodies which exist in hyperspace beyond our physical bodies. Through her work, she hopes to discover new ways for us to coexist with technology.
