Digital, Installation, Mixed Media, Abstract
I am Canadian-Bulgarian artist who creates digital art that encrypts written texts and conceptual art exploring the structures of Language viewed as a repository of ideas. Language became the driving force for my art and the spiritual healer for my mind during a period of introspections in search of answers about the meaning of death in the structures of English Language. And it was there in the net of interrelated as synonyms and antonyms words that I started finding my own (not someone else’s) answers to the existential questions bothering me. In 2013 I was granted a patent for methods for natural language generation and representation (CIPO - Patent 2704163). Now, I create hybrid artworks that are the result of a symbiosis between my imagination and custom software for generating English sentences and representing them as visual patterns and musical sounds. My working process starts with the compilation of a text containing sentences found by me in sequences of synonyms and sentences generated by the software. The sentences are then converted by the same software into different images. Finally, I manually create a visual “translation” of the text by using computer mouse instead of paintbrush and thousands of generated by the software images instead of acrylic paints.
