The Union
a machinima animaiton by FONTANA
This work represents and acknowledges the importance of identity and relationship between of two avatars (those of Anthony and Sandra Fontana, the artists) in a virtual space. Furthermore, it adds to the continuum of machinima created by the artists over the last several years, developing an ongoing mythology of their virtual experiences and interactions. Much like a marriage ceremony, the avatars are portrayed celebrating, sacrificing, and intimately engaging and changing one another.
