Hiba Ali Ph.D. shares their digital art in the form of immersive digital environments, sculpture-based installations, moving images, garments, and sound. They developed the term, digital somatics, to embody the body-mind-spirit connection to the principles of game design, worldbuilding and narrative storytelling. They use virtual reality, 3D animation and augmented reality to slow down time and create portals of solace and care and consider the digital portal as a liminal space where they call forth more loving and healing into our world. Their work has been presented in VBKÖ (Vienna), Deichtorhallen Internationale Kunst und Fotografie (Hamburg), re:publica (Berlin), Centre A (Vancouver), Horse Hospital,15 Folds (London),  Ars Electronica Festival, Onassis Stegi (Athens), Chicago Architecture Biennial (Chicago), Portland Art Museum (Portland), Interaccess, Trinity Video Square, Images Festival (Toronto), Alserkal Avenue (Dubai), Dhow Countries Music Academy (Zanzibar), Rehnsgatan 3 (Stockholm), Schloss Solitude (Stuttgart), Medrar for Contemporary Art (Cairo), UMAM D&R (Beirut), Oberhausen International Short Film Festival (Oberhausen), NEW INC [New Museum], Belladonna, Index NYC (New York City), imc5533 (Istanbul) and File-Electronic Language International Festival (São Paulo.)
