Natacha Roussel hijacks interactive 3D. She uses it in conjunction with sculpture to create an immersive environment that addresses the organic world and through it the most archaic feelings. The sculptures that serve as interfaces are fantasized extensions of the body: they are presented as soft tactile sculptures, which allow to act in a new way on the environment of the spect-actor. But the seductive and playful aspect of this piece leads the user to many other worlds.
Thanks to the tactile sculptural interfaces, the spectator can control a video image inside a 3D environment dealing with internal sensations. It would be the support of the reveries generated by the contact of the sculptures, and would complete the sensation by the visual to complete the occupation of the interior space.
Natacha Roussel lives and works in Montreal. She produces fixed or mobile interactive installations that have been presented as part of the Sculpturzikus collective, among others, at the MAI (Montreal), and independently at the Centre de sculpture Est-Nord-Est (St-Jean-Port-Joli) and as part of the Via + festival in Paris.
