Cyber Matrix Prison
"Multi-Screen Installation"
Cyber Matrix Prison features a physical space framed by metal, with a central screen hanging from chains, evoking a sense of confinement. This main screen showcases an evolving, AI-generated digital portrait that continuously distorts and transforms within the virtual realm. Surrounding smaller screens display contrasting, evocative colors and exaggerated visual symbols, cultivating an immersive atmosphere and a distinct narrative environment.
The eternal interplay of visions within this "Cyber Matrix" prison is vividly embodied in the space encircled by five screen installations.
​
MurphyNile built a multimedia installation, using metal materials to build a physical space, with a main screen chained to its center, expressing a sense of confinement. The main screen shows a constantly changing virtual portrait of a digital person, and his portrait is constantly alienated in the space within this virtual screen, flowing, while the rest of the smaller screens show strong and suggestive color contrasts and exaggerated visual pictograms to create a virtual atmosphere experience, a unique narrative space.
In a time when virtual objects are constantly taking over the self and the reality around us, identity is becoming more and more blurred for each of us.
The creation is based on a context in which reality has been gamified, and it presents a visual atmosphere in which human identity is juxtaposed with the electronic virtual world in the field of the installation.
Out of a high respect for craft and industry and a mastery of digital fabrication techniques in various materials, MurphyNile create works from materials. He try to find a break in the temporal dimension in the extreme proximity between the language of sculpture and the language of digital technology, constructing new human illusions and dreams into a new version of the real world
The virtual faces within the main screen stage push and pull internal states with a ghostly body, accompanied by a symbolic vision of stale and repetitive generation, in which the boundaries of organic identity are stripped away.
