Aliya Davletova (1995, Kazakhstan) is a transdisciplinary artist. Her background lies in graphic and information design, which has further developed into her artistic practice, where she integrates various media from physical and virtual reality. She explores the boundaries of alternative worlds, where the connection between fantasy and reality inseparably influences each other. Crystallizing the ephemeral world into the visible, Aliya explores the concept of human, their body, their soul and ongoing transformation in the face of constantly changing social and political factors of our world. Using 3D game engines Aliya makes these realities interactive.
Aliya is currently pursuing a Master's Degree in Experimental Game Cultures at the University of Applied Arts Vienna and is open to creative collaborations.

FRANKA  ︎︎︎ 


2023 / Textile Interface
Non-Human Sounds Performance

Franka is a handmade textile puppet 2.10 m high, which’s name refers to Frankenstein. 
Being connected with ropes to the joints, she acts as a physical interface for both individual and collective interaction. During the interaction Franka, as non Human, comes to life and raises the topic of the lifeless matter revival. She acts as an avatar, doppelgänger, an alternate body connected to the operator/s, which questions the concept of control. Are you controlling her, or she is you?
