Magdalen Pickering
​
My subjects are re-atomised through each dimension to form an iconic image that toys with the construct of binary and its representation in digital media. The facade of gender that becomes inclusive through the immersive first-person perspective that my work carries.

The process starts with drawing, to 3D modeling, then brought to our realm through screenprinting and painting. The process ends in your mind, where each dot of CMYK is processed by your brain, or the Oculus providing the 3D objects in my augmentation of reality.
