Livi is a digital artist and XR developer based in Greater Manchester. Her practice uses mixed reality and immersive technology to showcase lost histories, enhance storytelling, and challenge how people see the world around them. Livi is currently exploring the uncanny valley (the psychological phenomenon that describes the feeling of unease that people experience when something is almost human but not quite) in the current fast-paced digital renaissance.

Livi is a recipient of our 2024 Digital Artist Residencies programme, produced in partnership with DaDa and Lucid Games. During this residency, Livi is looking to explore the idea of ‘digital childhoods’, the online spaces we left behind, and how they might look now with and without the rose-coloured glasses of nostalgia.
