JESSICA TICCHIO
“CODE&CRAFT” - ENCODED BODIES
2025
Jessica Ticchio is reimagining the world through a contemporary art lens. Through Digital Art and Experiential Design, her creativity exists in the space between digital and physical, exploring how the two realms can exist in harmony. Playing with the line between real and surreal, she is inspired by the dreamstate, distortions of reality, grandious European architecture and sculptural forms seen in nature and everyday life. Her creative explorations transcend a variety of mediums, coming to life through 3D, AI and VR sculpture in her personal art practice, and the design of real-world immersive experiential spaces.
With visions of boundless dreamscapes and gravity-defying sculpture, Jessica’s creative practice aims to evoke intrigue and reflection, whilst bending the concept of reality as we know it. She draws on the personal experience of her Australian-Italian heritage to create compositions that blend & fuse a myriad of cultural influence; utopian spaces that feel non-specific to a single place in our recognisable world.
Jessica’s artworks have been featured across the globe; from Vogue Magazine to Shanghai’s Modern Art Museum, Art Angels Gallery LA, Sydney’s Powerhouse Museum and Prague’s first NFT art gallery ‘Cryptoportal’. In 2023, the artwork “Future Of The Past” appeared on two large-scale digital billboards: the Vérone Building Façade Paris and Causeway Bay, Hong Kong spanning 72 metres wide. In 2024, Jessica was nominated for the Créateurs Design Award for ‘Excellence in Digital Art’ in Paris, and has collaborated with brands such as Mecca, Logitech, Microsoft, Samsung and OPI.
The ‘Waiting For Spring’ series is a convergence of art, design, and technology, dissolving the boundary between digital and physical space. At its core is a recursive dialogue: virtual forms sculpted in VR become 3D-printed objects, then reanimated as digital animation sequences. Each translation alters the work, carrying traces of the past while evolving into something new; this cyclical process embodying tradition and innovation as part of a living spiral.
The works lives in the intersection of nature and technology, reality and dreamstate; asking how digital tools can reshape our connection to the natural world and our sense of space and self. Drawing on organic rhythms, the 3D-printed VR sculptures blur the line between surreal and tangible, inviting reflection on belonging, dislocation, and imagination in a world where digital and physical boundaries continue to increasingly converge.
“Exploring the transitional space between worlds — real and surreal, digital and physical, nature and technology — where creativity blurs boundaries and harmony emerges.”
