Kamilia Kard’s work is often concerned with the creation of emotional landscapes—3D environments that can either take the form of immersive virtual scenarios, presented as VR installations or playable games, or of large scale digital paintings, inhabited by monumental headless female bodies, photographic memories, painterly interventions, and silhouettes. “A Rose by Any Other Name” is one such space: a 3D model crawled by eerie creatures whose materials and textures recall the sensuality of the flesh, while their forms evoke the voluptuousness of roses. An exhausted symbol of romantic love, the rose turns carnal, sexual, and creepy at the same time. Often used in sentences that address the relationship between objects and words (Shakespeare), or stating the law of identity (Stein), in Kard's work the rose becomes an emblem of shadiness and uncertainty.
