“If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?”

Viviane Roi explores nature, physics, and social anthropology through new media. She works with video art, animation, and immersive installations, crafting experiences that reflect the contradictions of the digital era. Her geometric and symmetrical aesthetics weave real and virtual environments to unveil overlooked rhythms in society while examining shifts in perception and relationships within an expanding world. Through her work, she experiments with generated imagery, 3D scanning, and real-time data visualization, offering multisensory encounters that blur the boundaries between reality and simulation. Viviane has participated in residencies across multiple countries, including the United States, Germany, and Argentina, where she deepened her exploration of the intersections between technology, memory, and ecology. Her works have been exhibited in major cities such as New York, Berlin, Buenos Aires, and Taipei. Currently based in Toronto, Viviane continues to expand her artistic vocabulary in digital media, investigating the evolving dynamics between the natural and digital realms while fostering cross-cultural exchanges through her practice.
