Digital Art from Jana Stýblová

October 13, 2021 by Arseny Vesnin in 2021, Digital Art, Glitch, Czechia, Portfolios, NFT Art, USA

Analogue, abstract and grotesque artist Jana Stýblová shares her vision

“Each piece I create embodies the goal of merging the analogue/physical and digital. I begin a new piece by first making a painting on canvas with acrylic paint, spray paint and occasionally other chemicals. While the paint is still wet and malleable, I photograph the canvas both regularly and at a macro scale, revealing some of the more alien details the paint may create by interacting with itself. Once I have a set of sometimes hundreds of photos, I select the ones that strike me as most otherworldly or ones that would work well as a landscape foundation.”

”I bring these photographs into Photoshop and begin building, layering, cutting and seaming—slowly playing with density to reveal something that doesn't look paint-like at all. Often I will add gradients at this stage before running this preliminary collage through a pixel sorting bit of code in Processing. Pixel sorting is a technique invented by Kim Asendorf in 2010—I like to work with analogue methods, but have a deep respect and awe of code, combining the two in the NFT / Digital Art space is what, to me, solidifies the art as a digital work, rather than physical. “

”This process repeats and can go on for many hours until I feel a sense of completion, or indeed, perhaps a bit of transportation. You can read a bit more here: https://janastyblova.com/a-nebula “

Ai Weiwei: Law of the Journey

National Gallery Prague

March 14, 2017 by Arseny Vesnin in Art, China, 2017, Czechia

"At his upcoming exhibition at Prague’s National Gallery, Chinese artist and activist Ai Weiwei continues his investigation into the European refugee crisis. A refugee himself, Ai’s latest body of work has preoccupied him since the onset of the mass migration of people fleeing war and poverty in the Middle East and Africa for Europe in 2015."

"The exhibition, titled “Law of the Journey,” takes place against the backdrop of an Austrian proposal to cut European Union subsidies to member states refusing to participate in the EU’s refugee relocation program. According to Sputnik News, the Czech Republic has been reluctant to accept refugees from Italy and Greece in recent weeks."

The Macula: Archifon

April 05, 2012 by Arseny Vesnin in Art, Digital Art, Motioncollector, Czechia

Literally I was mesmerized till the end of this video presenting controllable mapping inside lomouc Baroque Chapel, Czech. Prague based media studio The Macula uses mapping projection to turn the cathedral interior to the large music installation with interactive elements activated by laser points. I think this case has a huge potentials in educational entertainments for kids and grown-ups.
