Moran founded vrWiz, a Virtual Reality Studio currently developing a VR gaming experience called "Inwards", to be released during winter 2020 on relevant VR platforms.
In Her most recent visual works, Moran is interested in fictitious conceptual spaces, both revealing and conceiving them. Treating the ”real“ as a grainy, dark canvas, from which new meaning can be extracted, extended and summoned. Allowing for alternative readings of a landscape and using the photograph as a mere marker, a remnant of a supposed objective truth.
Moran chooses to investigate the mysterious workings of the imagination, both the tracing and the insertion of subjective meaning, of deviation from origin and the materials that bridge a psychological gap, those which allow for the existence of a space within a space. she chooses to explore the associative implications of assembling fractured meanings as a way of coping with the unknown. In this Post-Truth Era, she dares to ask 'what is fragmented narrative and is it possible to plot its course?'
