STATEMENT

“Arena II” explores the video game as a form of contemporary artistic expression. The setting is a digitized underwater environment that simulates a battlefield, where promotional billboards accumulate as the game progresses. This process of visual saturation reflects on the invasion of digital space and information overload.

Designed for two players, “Arena II” transforms interaction into a dynamic experience that defies the conventions of the traditional video game, while, without interaction, it presents itself as a looping video, maintaining its narrative and visual critique.
