Auriea Harvey

Auriea Harvey is a digital sculptor who approaches polygons as mathematical clay, viewing algorithms as contemporary craft materials deserving the same reverence as marble or bronze. Her practice bridges the digital-physical divide through 3D scanning, robotic fabrication, and traditional techniques, creating works that question the boundaries between virtual and tangible, monstrous and divine.

A pioneer in net.art since the early days of the World Wide Web, Harvey co-founded the acclaimed studio Tale of Tales with Michael Samyn, where they created groundbreaking interactive experiences that explored the poetic possibilities of digital media.

Harvey's current practice encompasses sculpture, digital assemblage, and experimental media. Recently, she has expanded into classical materials, working in bronze and marble to interrogate the inherent value of those materials in relation to their digital origins – a natural evolution of her longstanding interest in form, texture, and the transformation of matter.
