An artist studying critical art theory at Goldsmiths College, University of London, Laura Fox’s research-based practice is focused on the intersection between philosophy and technology. Producing sculptures and virtual reality experiences using coding and gaming software, previous works include Homotopia, based on a post-capitalist, post-patriarchal virtual utopian island drawing on Foucault’s Of Other Spaces and queer theory, and exploring VR’s potential as a testing ground for utopian speculation. Selected shows include Utopian Speculation at Deptford X, Art/Games/Hackathon at Art Licks, and Orientating Realities and Latent/Pending at Goldsmiths College in London, as well as Ecophantasies at Reichenberger Strasse in Berlin.
