The whole afternoon I've spent today
together with Claudia222
Jewell on the sim
Art Screamer in her new work "Spirit". First I had to click on the
plant in front of the board at the landing point and wear the avatar. Oh my God, I'm a magical fairy. I
think that's the most beautiful mesh avatar I have ever
seen.
And now
I belong to this
strange world. It's a little dark,
but with warm colors (WL
Coastal Sunset). So many forms
and structures, I feel overwhelmed. Strange
creatures hover around. Completely unknown plants grow there.
In the sky are floating islands that look like jellyfish. Flying into them exposes many nice details.
A scene draws me into
the spell: Over the
head of a man hovers an equal, but transparent. Somehow,
everything on the sim is focused on this.
Claudia tells me that not long ago her father passed away after short, but serious illness.
That was the catalyst for this work. And she did it the hard way. The
more I look around, the more I am touched to see how deep Claudia has dealt
with interpersonal relationships and the loss of loved ones. Something that is an inevitably
part of our lifes, but yet so
difficult to accept. Even here in SL we lose friends to rl. They always leave a hurting gap.

| Talking with Claudia |
With the Avatar, I feel sensitive and vulnerable.
I am very touched and so grateful
that Claudia shares all this with
us.
Art Screamer opens tomorrow, Saturday 11. at 12PM SLT

You will soon too and we start the elves gang :))
Such a strange atmosphere... but it attracts me, somehow.
I did not know about the reasons which led Claudia to build her installation. Thanks to this post, I could have a new look at it.
