Now Or How I Wish It Was by Maria Servellon and A_Marcel (Digital Soup). Digital Art/Video Projection. Color; infinite loop. 2022. USA.
Representing life’s contradictions and change as the only constant, this piece, “Now or How I Wish It Was” both amplify everyday beauty while at the same time serving as a biting critique of the world’s problems. In the spirit of speculative worldbuilding, the videos represent escapism from what is here and towards personalizing the here so the world fits. This visual dialogue between Digital Soup members, Maria Servellon and A_Marcel, serves as a thinking board of life, surveillance, solitude, erasure of borders, humor, utopia, absurdity, resilience, and most importantly, collective human experiences. Commissioned by Boston Cyberarts bostoncyberarts.org
