Rayane Jemaa (*1998, Geneva) is a British-Tunisian artist, visual researcher and designer based between Geneva, London and Tunis. His work investigates how computational tools, game engines, 3D scanners, and satellite imagery mediate the representation of landscapes and whose cultures are flattened or distorted in the process. He was a finalist at the 2022 Swiss Design Awards for Is This the Middle East?, an investigative critique of Arab World representation in video games, for which he developed a photogrammetric technique to extract 3D models directly from game environments.

This conflict between digital and physical image-making also runs through his recent Burning Grounds series, where a laser engraver burns away dry pastel on paper to reveal wireframe meshes sourced from satellite imagery. The gesture collapses two image regimes: atmospheric, hand-applied material and the raw geometry of machine vision.
