Art Manifesto - Artists Statement

Version A

Boris works across multiple disciplines, connecting the corporeal and digital worlds through mixed media artworks, photos and paintings. Primarily working with digital drawing tools and algorithms in combination with his own photographic impressions, he investigates the process of dematerialization which kicked off by the advances in digital transformation.

Whereas technology has transformed the world around, humans have struggled to keep up with the exponential evolution of digital technologies and processes such as data abundance, data exchange artificial intelligences.  The artist explores this area fraught with tensions through demarcating and superimposing outlines, boundaries onto open spaces and representations of the physical world in order to give shape to, as well as reveal patterns and possible underlying truths: from an abstract as well as emotional point of view.

By emphasizing shapes and lines in the pictures, the artist tries to approach the subject with an additional layer of meaning and perception. His works directly respond to the surrounding environment and uses everyday experiences and impressions from the artist as a starting point, reinterpreting and the world and its digital counterpart composed of binary arrays. Through an effort of mapping and charting the new boundaries reveal pasts and futures through a visual code.

Drawing from his background in engineering the artist works with systems, IO (input/output, filter) interactions and designs that shape our thoughts and lives. Often these are framed instances that would go unnoticed in their original context.

Boris currently lives and works in München.
