Luna Woelle, born in the year 2000, is a Slovenian 3DCG artist currently based in Tokyo. Graduating from a graphic design high school in Ljubljana she moved to Japan to study Japanese traditional cuisine, driven by her interest and previous projects based on the art of Kaiseki presentation. With the start of the pandemic she found herself returning to digital art - starting with abstract, organic shapes, moving onto hard-surface modeling and experimenting with 'Imaginary Robotics'. Reacting to her understanding of consumer capitalism and her adapting to the highly convenient life in the technologically advanced metropolis, she creates objects that remind us of robotic apparatuses, but are in fact only material goods without any function or value. The irony brings forward her feelings of shame and dependence on the never-ending cycle of addiction and greediness that ultimately fuel our capitalist society.

Using AR technology, she has exhibited her work at P.O.N.D. at Shibuya Parco. As a co-founder of an experimental music label / audio-visual platform Mizuha 罔象 she works as a visual curator and manager, having organized an AR exhibition at Contact Tokyo. With technical support from Psychic VR Lab, she implemented AR into a 30min 3D animation for a group audio-visual performance at MUTEK Japan 2022. Continuously influenced by sounds, she is also a DJ for local events and international radio stations and platforms.
