En Plein Air: Diamond Princess (2015)
visão geral
Throughout En Plein Air: Diamond Princess, 3D-scanned performances by Miami Hip Hop icon Trina and the artist meld with icons from Satterwhite’s Southern upbringing and virtual renderings of his late mother’s imagined inventions for QVC infomercials. Co-commissioned by PAMM and Borscht Corp in 2015, the result is a surreal and ornate computer-generated world that celebrates Black queerness and freedom from oppression. By fusing analog and digital art techniques, the collective mythology of En Plein Air advances the medium of digital animation while dissolving the boundary between memory and desire. A leading voice in African Diaspora digital art, Satterwhite is celebrated for his multimedia 3D animations that address ritual, fantasy, freedom, and world-building.
