| | Project: AMBIDEXTROUS — Digital Sculptural Animation | | Registration: ID 1-2026-20024 DNDA Colombia | | Date: March 2022 | | Prepared by: Markus Hormaza, representative of ASAP PROJECTS © | | Link: GIF file integrated into digital portfolio (ASAP PROJECTS) | | Objective: Production of a digital kinetic art piece using Autodesk Mudbox, focused on the narrative exploration of symmetry, organic duality, and the creation of speculative biological anatomies. The work translates concepts of figuration and ecological relationships into an animated visual language, highlighting organic volumetrics, digital flesh texture, and a unified environmental narrative through figurative composition and orbital camera movement. Conceived within the framework of Symbiotic Organic Expressionism, it transforms the rigor of 3D digital sculpture into a visual expression that merges figurative art, bioart principles, and technology | | Design Phase: Digital sculpture, character design, organic environmental modeling, virtual cinematographic camera animation, and export for dissemination in animated GIF format | | Project Scope: Creation of a technical-artistic loop animation (GIF) depicting three characters (one central male and two female at the ends) as constitutive and vital inhabitants of a planetary environment of organic flesh. The focus is on digital cinematography applied to 3D sculpture, highlighting a narrative of radical symbiosis, where the material coherence between characters and their environment proposes a unique and unified ecology, exploring the plastic value of an integrated fantastic biology | | Standards Used: Color palette optimized for GIF format (color index), resolution and frame rate adjusted for web dissemination and continuous loop playback | | Design Requirements: High-poly sculptural modeling using Autodesk Mudbox as the structural base, ensuring credible figurative anatomy, absolute coherence in organic textures (flesh, skin, planetary surface), and a symmetrical spatial relationship between the figures. Development of a spatial narrative through an orbital camera movement (detail shots) that synchronously encircles the trio, emphasizing their unity with the environment. Adherence to principles of classical composition and virtual cinematography for the volumetric exploration of a closed ecological system | | Skills: Advanced figurative and anatomical digital sculpture with Autodesk Mudbox; design of coherent organic environments (worldbuilding); organic texturing for biological materials; virtual cinematography and design of orbital camera paths; symbolic composition and non-verbal visual narrative; rendering for loop animation; optimization and export for GIF format | | Technologies Used: Autodesk Mudbox (digital sculpture, texture and displacement painting). Complementary software for camera animation, sequential rendering, and GIF compilation | | Designed Components: 1. Three digital sculptural characters (central male figure, two lateral female figures). 2. A unified organic environment ("planet of flesh") that functions as terrain, extension, and condition of existence for the characters. 3. Configuration of a virtual digital camera with a continuous orbital trajectory (360°), generating variable detail shots. 4. Implicit environmental narrative of vital symbiosis, materialized through textural and morphological continuity | | Generated Documentation: Finalized GIF animation, integrated into the ASAP PROJECTS digital portfolio. Associated conceptual documentation and technical datasheets | | Materials (Digital): High-poly 3D sculpture with displacement textures and roughness painting to simulate organic materiality (skin, flesh, wet or fibrillar surfaces). Rendering focused on volumetrics, light, and shadow to define form and its environmental integration | | Primary Software: Autodesk Mudbox for digital sculpture and texturing | | Considerations: The project constitutes an exercise in philosophical and narrative digital sculpture within the realm of speculative bioart. 3D sculptural technique is used as a medium to visualize a figurative Gaia hypothesis, where the inhabitants and their planet are conceived as the interdependent components of a single living organism. It promotes "symbiotic organic coherence" as the central aesthetic and conceptual principle, fusing figurative anatomy with environmental imagination in a piece that celebrates the convergence of figurative art, symbiotic expressionism, and digital technology. It prioritizes the expression of a radical ecological belonging over any utilitarian application | | Contact: Markus Hormaza — Digital Artist / CAD-BIM Manager, hormazamarkus@gmail.com | | Rights: ASAP PROJECTS © — All rights reserved | |
