A second, more provocative thread in Vr’s portfolio is her exploration of the virtual body. In an era defined by deepfakes, AI-generated influencers, and augmented reality filters, the human form has become malleable data. Vr’s characters often inhabit an uncanny valley: they have hyper-realistic eyes and tears, but their limbs dissolve into particle effects or pixelate into abstraction. They are avatars in a state of becoming or unbecoming. One notable series features self-portraits where the artist’s face is superimposed with low-resolution digital masks—smiling emojis, VHS tracking lines, or even Windows ‘98 error dialogue boxes. This is not merely a stylistic gimmick; it is a profound commentary on identity performance online. Vr asks: When we present ourselves through screens, where does the analog self end and the digital self begin?
