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.

Biography
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 the digital and as a natural evolution of her longstanding interest in form, texture, and the transformation of matter.
Her work has been exhibited at prestigious institutions including the Tinguely Museum, Basel; the Victoria & Albert Museum, London; the New Museum, New York; and ZKM, Karlsruhe, Rhizome, and HEFT Gallery in New York. And her work has been collected by the Whitney Museum of American Art, Buffalo AKG Art Museum, KADIST Collection, and The Kramlich Collection.
Harvey continues to forge new pathways in contemporary art, whether through her exploration of digital dualism, her innovative use of 3D scanning and printing technologies, or her return to traditional sculptural practices. She currently works from her studio in Rome, where she draws inspiration from the city's rich artistic heritage while pushing the boundaries of what sculpture can be in the 21st century.
