Simone 'Funi' Fougnier is a visual artist from Northern Italy, built a 15-year career in the music industry, collaborating with icons like Deadmau5 and Anderson Paak as an illustrator, designer, and motion artist. In 2019, Fougnier co-founded Studio Syro to pioneer unexplored artistic mediums. This vision birthed 'Tales from Soda Island,' an award winning VR animated series for Meta, where Fougnier served as writer, designer, and director. As the field of VR evolves, Funi consistently explores its untapped artistic potential with a host of fresh, immersive projects underway. His last project, 'The Art of Change' was selected in the Immersive section at the 81st Venice Immersive Biennale and won the 2024 XR Experience Award.
