Explore where art imitates Second Life in the latest episode of the Drax Files: World Makers.

This episode features the works of an Italian illustrator - Flokers - who has synesthesia and whose Second Life avatar art has turned her passion into a full-time job. Her viewpoint is that an avatar represents a person’s inner persona, and her paintings reflect that. “It doesn’t matter to know who they are in real life,” she says, “ because I know them in Second Life … and that’s what they are to me in that moment.”

Watch this

for a glimpse at her artwork, what the synesthesia experience is like for her, and some of her Second Life philosophy. “ … it gave me the chance to become the artist I always wanted to be.”
