Overview

NetraHex draws on feminist mythology to construct a virtual environment shaped by the figure of the CyberWitch.

The work invites visitors to enter an alternate post-human landscape where technological systems and mythological symbolism converge. Within this space, witchcraft functions as a conceptual lens through which the relationships between the female body, technological mediation and structures of power can be reconsidered.

By invoking the archetype of the witch - historically associated with knowledge, autonomy and resistance - the installation reframes digital technology as a site of transformation rather than control. The CyberWitch becomes a speculative figure positioned within networks of code, image and ritual.

Through this framework, NetraHex explores how myth, identity and technological systems might be recomposed within emerging digital environments.
