author's description
The presented series of paintings is the result of explorations related to the computer as a tool of creativity and its subject. I make an attempt to create an iconography of experiences related to living and creating in digital space. I theme elements that coexist on the post-perspective screen, such as 3D graphics, games or digital photography, but also the devices and systems themselves that generate images. This is both a metamural work, as it is concerned with transcending the conventions of painting, and a metacypical work, as it is a reflection on the essence of digital experience.
