Virtual Self-Portrait Martina Menegon's 2016-2017 series, Virtual Narcissism, presents a series of virtual sculptures created in real-time on tablets. These digital artworks showcase the artist's body as it has been obsessively scanned over the years, resulting in untouched and precise 3D models. The artistic process pushes the boundaries of 3D scanning by simultaneously self-scanning and remaining still without compromising the accuracy of the final model. The work delves into the translation of the human form into a virtual state, sparking a grotesque conversation between the physical body and its digital counterpart. By exploring this dichotomy, Menegon's project invites viewers to reflect on the relationship between the tangible and intangible aspects of our existence.
