Welcome to my Homepage presents Bachelor in Paradise by Rudy Falagán.
Project Description
During his residency Rudy Falagán carefully recreated the resort and cast from Season 7 of Bachelor in Paradise in The Sims 4, using custom mods and texture mapping. In a livestream, Falagán re-staged Season 7, letting the in-game “freewill” system re-write the show in queer, swimming pool drowning-laden, Sim time. Visit his Homepage site to view each character’s bio and in-game traits, plus the details of the resort.
Virtual Performance
Rudy held a virtual performance of Bachelor in Paradise at the Games Y’all Queer Indie Games (November 2022) via Twitch livestream.
Artist Bio
Rudy Falagán (he/it, b. 1999) is an interdisciplinary artist with a BFA in Fine Art from the University of Southern California Roski School of Art and Design. His interests span from internet culture to the materiality of clay to the human capacity for information, and oftentimes draws from his transgender identity as well as his own ordeals with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder to analyze the limits of identity creation in both digital and physical space. It is very grateful to have the ability to do those things. His work has been shown at Coaxial Arts, François Ghebaly Gallery, and Mission Gathering Church.
