Voyde

Voyde, aka Indira Ardolic, is a New Media Artist and Creative Technologist from New York. She employs digital technologies to recreate experiences and dreams, merging mysticism with technology. Her favorite themes include celebrating queerness, destigmatizing mental health, and uplifting marginalized identities. She seeks to use game engines to enable unique interactions, providing a deeper understanding of our humanity. She discovered games as a perfect escape from reality during her youth. Now, she sees games and interactive 3D media as the ultimate love letter to reality itself—how beautiful is it that we learned math to mimic the movement of water? It feels like creating an illusion of a grander life, one so compact it can be held in your hand.
