The work inspired by Verner Panton (1926-1998), the pop furniture designer from Denmark, known for his optical interiors and pioneering work with injection molded plastics. His design strategy originally emerged from the Danish Modern, known for bent, biomorphic wood and muted tones. Panton broke with this esthetic, developing instead fantastical, vibrant interiors he described as psychedelic landscapes. A synthetic interior in which monumental sculptures of flowers are surfaced with Panton-inspired patterns, this world is was my version of Panton\u2019s kind of optimistic sixties Op Art. It is an architecture that grows and randomly decays, cycling endlessly. Defined by several of Panton&#8217;s lighting fixtures used to cover walls and ceilings, I tried to create an esthetic of fakeness where technology has replaced nature, both sugary sweet and chemically toxic in equal measures.

The driver of all of these cycles, but a driver scarcely in control, this female figure is a Mother Nature heading straight for what she suspects might be Oblivion.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-04b0c53 elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"04b0c53\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div style=\"position: relative;height: 0;overflow: hidden; padding: 0 0 56.25% 0;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"niio-media-frame\" id=\"niioWidget1\" src=\"https:\/\/embed.niio.com\/1.1\/index.html?showinfo=false&hideinfobtn=true\n&autoplay=false&mute=true&hidefullscreen=false&controls=true&artworkid=13461&portrait=false&key=IA9B7KBAQD&invitationCode=qi7y9wouh2foeh6\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen width=\"560\" height=\"315\"  style=\"position: absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height: 100%;\" ><\/iframe><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-182fd6c text-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-tp-heading-title\" data-id=\"182fd6c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"tp-heading-title.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"heading heading_style heading_style69d251b469793 style-1 \" ><div class=\"sub-style\" ><div class=\"head-title \" > <h3  class=\"heading-title   \"   data-hover=\"Claudia Hart \">Claudia Hart <span class=\"title-s \">  <\/span><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"sub-heading\"><h3 class=\"heading-sub-title  \"> Seasons <\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2b59ef1 niio-text-run elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2b59ef1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>The Seasons, 2008 11-minute 3D Animation, Looped 4K Pro Res Lite.<\/p><p>The Seasons portrays a room in which a slowly evolving sculptural figure gradually transforms. In this animated loop, a variety of visual, temporal and conceptual cycles are offset and overlaid so that their movement is obscured. All is in flux but time seems to stand still, as in life. In The Seasons, a seated woman in a pose of erotic abandon cycles clockwise on a rotating pedestal. As she cycles, she decomposes, a vine of roses surrounding her, blooming and then fading away. The room also revolves, though counter clockwise, while the animation camera pans back and forth. These movements function in counterpoint, to appear only on the edge of perception. Sound for the piece is of crumbling paper. The color scheme is white on white.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2812535 elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"2812535\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div style=\"position: relative;height: 0;overflow: hidden; padding: 0 0 56.25% 0;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"niio-media-frame\" id=\"niioWidget1\" src=\"https:\/\/embed.niio.com\/1.1\/index.html?showinfo=false&hideinfobtn=true\n&autoplay=false&mute=true&hidefullscreen=false&controls=true&artworkid=15394&portrait=false&key=E2MMIES23O&invitationCode=853340v84cqd7dj\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen width=\"560\" height=\"315\"  style=\"position: absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height: 100%;\" ><\/iframe><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-46af89d text-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-tp-heading-title\" data-id=\"46af89d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"tp-heading-title.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"heading heading_style heading_style69d251b46a4a7 style-1 \" ><div class=\"sub-style\" ><div class=\"head-title \" > <h3  class=\"heading-title   \"   data-hover=\"Claudia Hart \">Claudia Hart <span class=\"title-s \">  <\/span><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"sub-heading\"><h3 class=\"heading-sub-title  \"> Ophelia <\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d72e0a6 niio-text-run elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d72e0a6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>&#8220;Ophelia&#8221;, 2008 single-channel animation 10 minute 3D animated loop, available as high-definition video-object or large-scale projected installation Ophelia is a 3D animation in which the exposed body of a naked woman drifts at the bottom of the ocean. Hamlet\u2019s lover, Ophelia is a feminist figure embodying the Electra complex, a mad woman who drowned herself for love of a man who murdered her father. But there is another tragedy embodied here, a collision between the technological and the natural worlds.

From the moment of creation, digital life is marked by myriad glitches and a rapid descent into obsolescence. Hence digital life is no more than a mere illusion for a more base reality, that which is Digital Death. This work was created by embracing ideas that seem to be contradictory by simultaneously using two sets of paired software tools, on two separate pieces of software that are oppose one another. The first set employs a biological growth algorithm. What I did was to both &#8220;grow&#8221; and &#8220;ungrow&#8221; a cherry tree simulation at the same time. The second set regards the passage of time. I both added and removed time simultaneously, using editing software. By using tools that exist in paradoxical relation to one another, I created a Taoist tree that eats itself even as it is being born, endlessly cycling &#8211; in a state of Digital Death. The piece was first shown in a two-person exhibition entitled Rendering Time, with the artist and my former student, Alex M. Lee at Gallery Dos in Seoul, Korea. A catalog written by Nicholas O&#8217;Brien discusses our work in the context of contemporary media, representation and proposes that digital structures necessitate a contemporary version of the historical concept of the Sublime.

By Claudia Hart, with music composed by Edmund Campion, cello improvisations by Danielle DeGruttola, vocals by Claudia Hart and Mikey McParlane. Special thanks to Jennifer Muraoka. Meant to be exhibited offset in multiple channels. Available as 1080 p and 4K Inside the Flower Matrix is a new work that is a part of Claudia Hart\u2019s Alice world, reinterpreting the Lewis Carroll paradigm as a labyrinth. Inside the Flower Matrix envisions Wonderland as the Interweb, covered by flashing emoji, the icons for power, money, addiction and control. Hart\u2019s Internet is commercial stripway, the enactment of Casino Capitalism but at the same time, paradoxically, also a metaphor for a model of the mind and a site of transformation. The Flower Matrix is specifically modeled after the ancient Roman mythological labyrinth of the Minotaur, an endless maze from which there is no escape. Hart has created a game world covered with pulsing graphical patterns made from emoji, and also from symbolic computer language and public signage icons, conjoined in animated patterns that throb and pulse hypnotically. Also inside the Flower Matrix are five original species of fantastical flowers designed by Hart and covered with the same pulsing patterns, randomly growing and decaying. This is an environment portraying an esthetic of fakeness where technology has replaced nature, both sugary sweet and chemically toxic in equal measures.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-77c17b1\" data-id=\"77c17b1\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-ba77bdf elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"ba77bdf\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-9ccb82a\" data-id=\"9ccb82a\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-17fc8e6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"17fc8e6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img width=\"224\" height=\"224\" src=\"https:\/\/www.niio.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/claudia-hart.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-7f1ccfe\" data-id=\"7f1ccfe\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b9ce71a elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"b9ce71a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-803fd28 text-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-tp-heading-title\" data-id=\"803fd28\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"tp-heading-title.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"heading heading_style heading_style69d251b4707dc style-1 \" ><div class=\"sub-style\" ><div class=\"head-title \" > <h2  class=\"heading-title   \"   data-hover=\"Claudia Hart \">Claudia Hart <span class=\"title-s \">  <\/span><\/h2><\/div><div class=\"sub-heading\"><h3 class=\"heading-sub-title  \"> Artist <\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e399f3b niio-text-about elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e399f3b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\">Claudia Hart emerged as part of a generation of 90s intermedia artists in the \u201cidentity art\u201d niche.

Hart was an early adopter of virtual imaging, using 3D animation to make media installations and projections, then later as they were invented, other forms of VR, AR, and objects using computer-driven production machines, all based on the same computer models.

Slurb, a word that collapses slum and suburb encapsulates a dreamy ode to the rise of slime, a watery future in which jellyfish have dominion. There is a history of satirical illustration, epitomized by J.J.Grandville in the 19th century, in which animal-headed humans are deployed in the telling of troubling social narratives. Slurb is that kind of cartoon. Facts of the oceans radical changes in acidity and oxygen levels form the backbone of the animation; overfishing, dumping, and climate changes heating of ocean currents have already triggered a reversion toward a primordial sea in parts of the ocean larger than the state of Texas. Slurbs surface is inspired by fictions, like J.G. Ballards prescient 1962 novel Drowned World, in which inhabitants of a flooded world feel the tug of the sun, and dream of a return to their amniotic past.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a433287 elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"a433287\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div style=\"position: relative;height: 0;overflow: hidden; padding: 0 0 56.25% 0;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"niio-media-frame\" id=\"niioWidget1\" src=\"https:\/\/embed.niio.com\/1.1\/index.html?showinfo=false&hideinfobtn=true\n&autoplay=false&mute=true&hidefullscreen=false&controls=true&artworkid=8458&portrait=false&key=ZGH1E7KC00&invitationCode=b8ex5q78yzhe406\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen width=\"560\" height=\"315\"  style=\"position: absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height: 100%;\" ><\/iframe><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bc39482 text-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-tp-heading-title\" data-id=\"bc39482\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"tp-heading-title.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"heading heading_style heading_style69d251b480152 style-1 \" ><div class=\"sub-style\" ><div class=\"head-title \" > <h3  class=\"heading-title   \"   data-hover=\"Marina Zurkow\">Marina Zurkow<span class=\"title-s \">  <\/span><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"sub-heading\"><h3 class=\"heading-sub-title  \"> Elixir II <\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d4b0b71 niio-text-run elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d4b0b71\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>The &#8220;Elixir&#8221; pieces describe impossible landscapes: cut-crystal bottles bob and toss like buoys in the ocean, beacons bearing potions, poisons, messages, genies.

The subjects of this work are four grand altarpieces by Anton Van Dyke and Peter Paul Ruebens in the museum\u2019s Flemish collection: Van Dyck\u2019s Christ on the Cross (1628) and Rubens\u2019 Martyrdom of St. Catherine (1615), The Ecstasy of Mary Magdalene (1619) and The Descent from the Cross (1617). &#8220;Strata #4 is a study of the relationship between classical figuration and abstraction,&#8221; says Quayola. &#8220;It is based on universal rules of beauty and perfection.

It defines a manner of identifying breaks within organic evolution, a visual metaphor for a history composed not as a linear process but one of accumulation of signifiers over time. It is in this vein that the &#8220;Strata&#8221; series explores the construction and deconstruction of our perception of classical art, architecture and iconography. Operating within the landscape of classical aesthetics&#8211;the perfection found in the figuration of the Renaissance, the opulence of the Baroque, or the rigour and integrity of Gothic architecture &#8211;&#8220;Strata&#8221; delves under the surface of the image, deconstructing it, reducing it to it\u2019s essential coordinates, colors, geometries, and strips it of its symbolic function. A living abstract landscape emerges, complete with topographic maps, linear pathways and structures which pulsate, diverge from the origin, scatter, and hang suspended.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-799dbc9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"799dbc9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div style=\"position: relative;height: 0;overflow: hidden; padding: 0 0 56.25% 0;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"niio-media-frame\" id=\"niioWidget1\" src=\"https:\/\/embed.niio.com\/1.1\/index.html?showinfo=false&hideinfobtn=true\n&autoplay=false&mute=true&hidefullscreen=false&controls=true&artworkid=5244&portrait=false&key=7XT45HLFQM&invitationCode=seowqey2eoexh0z\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen width=\"560\" height=\"315\"  style=\"position: absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height: 100%;\" ><\/iframe><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bbabc93 text-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-tp-heading-title\" data-id=\"bbabc93\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"tp-heading-title.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"heading heading_style heading_style69d251b48983b style-1 \" ><div class=\"sub-style\" ><div class=\"head-title \" > <h3  class=\"heading-title   \"   data-hover=\"Quayola\">Quayola<span class=\"title-s \">  <\/span><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"sub-heading\"><h3 class=\"heading-sub-title  \"> Strata #2 <\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5194df3 niio-text-run elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5194df3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p dir=\"ltr\">In Strata #2 Quayola creates an imaginary geology, in which he fragments the window of a gothic Cathedral, layer by layer, into individual picture sections.

Quayola edits the acquired videos with complex computational analysis of motion, composition and colour schemes which become the foundation for the creation of new algorithmic paintings.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fb05780 elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"fb05780\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div style=\"position: relative;height: 0;overflow: hidden; padding: 0 0 178% 0;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"niio-media-frame\" id=\"niioWidget1\" src=\"https:\/\/embed.niio.com\/1.1\/index.html?showinfo=false&hideinfobtn=true\n&autoplay=false&mute=true&hidefullscreen=false&controls=true&artworkid=2657&portrait=true&key=WZOIC5D6WN&invitationCode=ta8trta54d82t3a\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen width=\"560\" height=\"995.5555555555555\"  style=\"position: absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height: 100%;\" ><\/iframe><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2247cae text-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-tp-heading-title\" data-id=\"2247cae\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"tp-heading-title.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"heading heading_style heading_style69d251b48becf style-1 \" ><div class=\"sub-style\" ><div class=\"head-title \" > <h3  class=\"heading-title   \"   data-hover=\"Quayola\">Quayola<span class=\"title-s \">  <\/span><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"sub-heading\"><h3 class=\"heading-sub-title  \"> Topologies Tiepolo <\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4a7ff7e niio-text-run elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4a7ff7e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Produced in high definition for a commission by the British Film Institute and onedotzero, this piece premiered in 2010 at the BFI Gallery, London. Originally produced as a two-channel animated video installation, the work also exists as a single-channel piece. Interrupting our expectations of space, the Topologies video installation re-imagines the calculations that go into crafting a masterpiece. In this work, the painted surfaces of two pieces from the Museo del Prado collection, Las Meninas (1656) by Vel\u00e1zquez and The Immaculate Conception (1767) by Tiepolo, transform into animated movement. Dislocating the viewer in time, this work boldly challenges, yet still submits to, the art object&#8217;s myth of perfection and aura, hanging in a church or museum. Transporting this beauty into a virtual realm, Quayola rigorously investigates the surface details of each object. Pure geometry and abstraction take over, as he reframes his subjects using a computational method of triangulation. Hundreds of thousands of polygons and points comprise a wire frame core that mathematically contorts and regenerates, driven by a soundscape that visually is determined.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-62867922\" data-id=\"62867922\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-17a468c0 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"17a468c0\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-61a22d97\" data-id=\"61a22d97\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-395e1f7f elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"395e1f7f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img width=\"368\" height=\"368\" src=\"https:\/\/www.niio.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/quayola1.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-3f4b17d4\" data-id=\"3f4b17d4\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-78112a78 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"78112a78\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7895f7f6 text-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-tp-heading-title\" data-id=\"7895f7f6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"tp-heading-title.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"heading heading_style heading_style69d251b49068a style-1 \" ><div class=\"sub-style\" ><div class=\"head-title \" > <h2  class=\"heading-title   \"   data-hover=\"Quayola\">Quayola<span class=\"title-s \">  <\/span><\/h2><\/div><div class=\"sub-heading\"><h3 class=\"heading-sub-title  \"> Artist <\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-566da0da niio-text-about elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"566da0da\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Quayola employs technology as a lens to explore the tensions and equilibriums between seemingly opposing forces: the real and artificial, figurative and abstract, old and new. Constructing immersive installations, often at historically significant architectural sites, he engages with and reimagines canonical imagery through contemporary technology. Hellenistic sculpture, Old Master painting, and Baroque architecture are some of the historical aesthetics that serve as a point of departure for Quayola\u2019s abstract compositions. His varied practice, all deriving from custom computer software, also includes audiovisual performance, video, sculpture, and works on paper.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-1e948d elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1e948d\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-7056f72d\" data-id=\"7056f72d\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-38d5f9e0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-eael-lightbox\" data-id=\"38d5f9e0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"eael-lightbox.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\n\n\t\t<div data-lightbox-type=\"lightbox_type_custom_html\" data-lightbox-type-url=\"\" data-lightbox-trigger-pageload=\"1\" data-lightbox-closebtn-color=\"#ffffff\" class=\"eael-lightbox-wrapper\" data-trigger=\"eael_lightbox_trigger_button\" data-lightbox-id=\"lightbox_38d5f9e0\" data-type=\"inline\" data-src=\"#eael-lightbox-window-38d5f9e0\" data-popup-layout=\"eael-lightbox-popup-standard\" data-main-class=\"eael-lightbox-modal-popup-38d5f9e0\" data-close_button=\"yes\" data-esc_exit=\"yes\" data-click_exit=\"yes\" data-effect=\"animated \" data-trigger-element=\".eael-modal-popup-link-38d5f9e0\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"eael-lightbox-btn\">\n\t\t\t\t<span id=\"btn-eael-lightbox-38d5f9e0\" class=\"eael-modal-popup-button eael-modal-popup-link eael-modal-popup-link-38d5f9e0 elementor-button elementor-size-md\">Contact Niio Art Advisor<\/span>\t\t\t<\/div><!-- close .eael-lightbox-btn -->\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"eael-lightbox-popup-window eael-lightbox-popup-window-38d5f9e0 lightbox_type_custom_html\" id=\"eael-lightbox-window-38d5f9e0\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"eael-lightbox-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"eael-lightbox-header\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"eael-lightbox-title\">Contact Art Advisor<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<br> \n\n\t\t\t\t\t<script>\n\t\t\t\t\t\thbspt.enqueueForm({\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tportalId: 2720692,\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tformId: \"99028100-a33f-49b0-b321-8d0adb1d7540\",\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\ttarget: \"#hbspt-form-1775391156000-1928645426\",\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tshortcode: \"wp\",\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t});\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/script>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hbspt-form\" id=\"hbspt-form-1775391156000-1928645426\"><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>bitforms gallery Curated Catalog Created by:\u00a0bitforms gallery Founded in 2001, bitforms gallery represents established, mid-career, and emerging artists critically engaged with new technologies.
