A Chapel on the Edge: St. Maria of the Good in Second Life

High on a bluff, looking out over the water, sits a small Baroque chapel ( ST. Maria of the Good)that feels like it belongs to a story already in progress. I wasn’t looking for a church. But Second Life has a way of putting things in front of you that ask you to stop and notice. St. Maria of the Good is inspired by a real church in Bavaria, and like many places in Second Life it carries more…

Amanda is a friend through Second Life’s art community, and her work has been part of my Second Life journey for several years.

Scylla Rhiadra: Art as Conversation

My first encounter with Scylla Rhiadra was several years ago through Intimacy, an exhibition exploring identity, self-representation, and the ways our virtual selves can reveal truths about who we are. I don’t remember every image from that visit, but I do remember leaving very impressed. Since then, I’ve crossed paths with Scylla’s work more than once. When I invited her to exhibit at Salt…

Alex Riverstone: Second Life Photography Exhibit at Maison de la Chouette, Corsica

There’s a kite string pulling upward over a misty canal, two dogs watching from a bridge below. A ghost-grey island settlement reflected perfectly in still water. Herons perched on coastal rock. A torii gate rising from a sepia sea. And then, just when the mood settles: pitcher plants in stark monochrome, or white reeds erupting against a blood-red sky. This is a collection that earns your…

Inis Oirr in Second Life: a Virtual Photography Journey.

A wandering through Jade Koltai’s Inis Oírr in Second Life. The tide was already going out when I reached the harbor.Not quickly—nothing here moved quickly—but with the steady patience of something that had done this longer than memory. The water peeled itself away from the rocks, leaving dark lines behind, as if the shore were keeping score. The tide does not erase. It rearranges. A gull…
