Artist statement
I explore the boundaries between human creativity and machine precision. Through custom-built drawing machines and generative algorithms, I investigate how mechanical systems can produce organic, unrepeatable results. My work challenges the distinction between digital and analog art-making processes.
Each piece emerges from a dialogue between programmed patterns and physical media. By manipulating motor speeds, arm lengths, and custom ink dispensers, I create conditions where unexpected patterns can emerge. Like a musician with an instrument, I've learned to play these machines, responding to their output in real-time.
My work often focuses on organic patterns and intersecting lines, creating complex forms that emerge from simple interactions. This interplay between structure and spontaneity appears whether I'm working with ink on paper, generating digital art, or creating three-dimensional pieces. The result is art that feels both precisely calculated and naturally evolved.
Artist Bio
I am an artist whose engineering background has shaped a unique approach to creative expression. My work spans drawing machines, generative art, light installations, and sculptural pieces, each exploring the delicate balance between technological precision and artistic intuition.
Beginning with early experiments in 2014, I've developed increasingly sophisticated ways to merge digital and analog art-making processes. My pieces have been exhibited internationally, including shows at Vellum Gallery in Los Angeles and NFT Art Week in China. A notable highlight includes "Kraftstationens själ," a large-scale light installation commissioned by the city of Norrköping, Sweden, which transformed an old power station into an animated canvas.
My exploration of generative art extends into the blockchain space through two long-form collections: Dendrites and Fibrant, which translate my aesthetic approach into purely digital forms. Recent works also include explorations into 3D-printed sculptures, extending my visual language into new dimensions. Through these various media, I continue to investigate how technology can enhance artistic expression while maintaining the human element that makes each piece unique.
