The artist I chose to talk about is Heather Kelly. Heather Kelly is a game designer, curator, and digital artist who is considered the “Five most powerful women in gaming” and “technology” according to Inc. magazine and Fast Company. As a curator, she co-curated “Joue le jeu / Play Along at La Gaîté lyrique” in Paris, a groundbreaking exhibition, and curated the GAMMA event, a renowned event that promotes experimental videogames as creative expression. As a game designer, she created numerous projects such as “Fabulous/Fabuleux”, a game installation that can be controlled with your full body. Another game she worked on is called “Hyper Cube”, a VR puzzler pong game that takes the original game to a whole new level. In a technological field where it consists of people who are mostly men, Heather Kelly will be one of the most influential people that will make the technological field more gender diverse.
