{"product_id":"simulated-lovers","title":"Simulated Lovers","description":"Simulated Lovers is an ongoing multimedia project that\r\ninvestigates how romantic projection, emotional memory,\r\nand digital intimacy shape the construction of the self.\r\nDrawing from fictional narratives, gaming culture, dating\r\nplatforms, and Al companionship, the artist assembles a deeply\r\npersonal archive that blurs the boundary between fantasy and\r\nemotional truth.\r\nThrough fictional icons and real-world collaborations,\r\nBeatriz builds a multi-layered portrait of longing in the digital\r\nage. What begins as a search for the perfect other becomes a\r\nmirror for the artist herself — revealing not only who she has\r\ndesired, but also who she has become through\r\nthe process of imagining them.\r\nThis body of work presents pieces developed over several\r\nyears, combining video, photography, and digital media.\r\nEach one functions as part of a larger narrative — one that\r\nmaps the shifting landscape of desire, vulnerability, and the\r\npsychological architecture of love in the post-digital age.\r\nSimulated Lovers is not about romance in the\r\nconventional sense. It is about emotional authorship, fantasy\r\nlabor, and the spaces we construct — both digitally and internally\r\n— to make sense of love, memory, and identity.\r\n\r\nBeatriz Lamarca is a multidisciplinary artist and art director\r\nwhose work intricately weaves themes of intimacy, memory,\r\ndisplacement, and simulation. Her practice spans video,\r\nphotography, sculpture, writing, and digital experimentation\r\nwith Al, all anchored in the emotional architecture of everyday\r\nlife and the unspoken narratives we carry, tracing the invisible\r\nlines between touch and distance, fantasy and reality,\r\nchildhood and transformation.","brand":"Antenne Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53271088660818,"sku":"AB8773","price":58.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0822\/0062\/5490\/files\/AB8773-simulated_20lovers-03.jpg?v=1784129686","url":"https:\/\/antennebooks.com\/en-eu\/products\/simulated-lovers","provider":"Antenne Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
