Ina Conradi Chavez’s current research undertaken at the Nanyang Technological University, at the School of Art, Design and Media, in Singapore, is continuing into exploring image-making methodologies on a larger scale, creating illusions that transform the viewer’s perception of actual space in a synthesis of the real and virtual. Drawing on the ideas of the merge of digital painting and avant-garde filmmaking and sound cultures, her current work aims to craft meaningful, immersive, interactive and 3D animated installation using digital image, seeking innovative convergence of art and technology to transform spaces into novel experiences. Her research explores: 1) experimental and immersive abstract computer animation; 2) responsive and reactive painted surfaces with imagery integrating experimental 3D stereo animation; 3) oversized image creation using algorithmic paint strokes; 4) high resolution computer rendering technique; 5) advanced print prototyping and finishing technique. Ina Conradi was born in Belgrade, Serbia. Currently lives and works between Los Angeles and Singapore. Ina received her B.F.A. Textile Design from the University of Belgrade, and M.F.A. in Art, at the University of California at Los Angeles. She continued studies in Tokyo and Kyoto, as a Japan Foundation Fellow.
