Simotron Aquila is an Italian artist. She’s in second life from 2009.
Simotron’s sculptures and installations are almost entirely made in-world, using basic prims to create an “iconic”, symbolic and extremely elementary world. Simple shapes, the almost absence of textures, a slight movement, bring the attention on the meaning and leave space to the imagination.
The same linear, essential and simple features distinguish Simotron’s drawings that are part of the creative process.
Her works are a reflection on the relations between real and virtual dimension of everybody life, in which to establish ties and limits is as many as important as to overcome them or to break them.
She investigates the lightness and the suspension in some of their different meanings and properties through a more intimate view: the lightness of the suspension and the weight of gravity, but also the heavy void of the absence, lack or wait and the worrying lightness of the dematerialization matched to the weight of new possibilities to invade our life or manipulate our opinion.
