Kirsten Geisler employs in her work with the interface between the real and virtual worlds . They discussed how these worlds are increasingly flowing into each other. Kirsten Geisler developed virtual sculptures using 3D and virtual reality technology. The body, its materiality, its traces and its presence in the media are the issues that shape their work and inspiration. Her work includes only computer-generated 3-D sculptures.
\nAt the beginning created juxtapositions of real and virtual portraits of women such as “Who are You?”, 1996. Odle took it to the socio-political debate about the virtual and digital and the construction of identity in a digitally networked world. In the work of the series ” Virtual Beauties “, 1992-1996, the repertoire of the virtual 3-D characters, enhanced by the interaction with the viewer. The series focuses on the manifestation of feminine beauty ideals and reflects the obsession with beauty in a digitized and virtualized society. It works followed with full-length, stereotypical women’s bodies such as “Dream of Beauty ‘, 1997 – 2000, and” Catwalk I “-.” Catwalk II “, 2004, these virtual models created without photographic model you are the synthesis of ideal images of a woman, as they are given us by the media. . They correspond to the ideals of the fashion industry and plastic surgery . In “Catwalk II” moves the figure like a model on the catwalk and presented as in a film report from a fashion show.
\nThe development of this series with the version of “Brush Maya”, 2011, transcends the boundaries between the real world and virtual world. Moved as a fictional character, Maya Brush in two worlds: the first time, leaving a virtual sculpture, the museum and art institutions dares step into the “real” life in the public media and global communication networks. Kirsten Geisler responds with “Maya Brush” on the increasing interconnectedness of our world: a virtual sculpture, whose body consists of a network of data, combined with his advocacy in the real world of media symbiosis with the global networks of our world.<\/p>\n
