Created for an experimental online show curated by cinni.net, the Wizard Orb was an exploration of inner and outer space and based on the Flammarion engraving from 1888.
This work makes use of the rendering quirk of back-face culling which causes a 3D object to be invisible when viewed from behind. This allows a viewer to look inside the sphere from the outside, but when inside the sphere it becomes opaque.
The sphere features an Ozwompian wizard who is studying the stars on the outer wall of the sphere, but would be unable to observe the world beyond.
