summary
Virtual Replica is a contemporary artistic project that reflects upon our relation with the world. It is a camera (room) obscuradesigned with the aid of parametric software in order to be fabricated with CNC technology based on thin layers of plywood. An ephemeral architecture that creates an immersive experience for the visitor who is surrounded by a number of “virtual screens” exhibiting inverted images of the immediate exterior. This paper proposes the phenomenon of camera obscura as a proto building that gives life to an architecture of the image, using it as its built as well as its theoretical fundamental reference.
