Anna Madeleine Raupach is a multidisciplinary artist based on Ngunnawal and Ngambri land, Canberra, Australia, and a Lecturer at the Australian National University School of Art & Design. Her practice spans physical and digital forms to explore how human and machine expression recursively evolves, and to examine how technology shapes our interpretation of the natural world. Using expanded drawing methods, experimental moving image, and mixed reality, her work re-interprets diagrammatic systems and aesthetics to inform an artistic inquiry that draws on scientific methodologies.
