Metamorphosis / Confrontation (Keynote)

This presentation traces the development of my practice, starting from the PhD presentation in late 2019 to the exhibition Metamorphosis or Confrontation and the current exhibitions, Art Machines and at Art Basel Hong Kong. It is structured in 4 distinct spaces that articulate a new practice model that strictly opposes a traditional dualistic separation of digital workflows and traditional making and material understanding. 

I will highlight three operational methods to articulate the notion of Digital Craftsmanship in the form of a collaborative practice in which methods of transfer and transformation collapse into a dialogue between practitioners from craft, science, and engineering, enabling the emergence of new hybrid objects, materials, tools and associated values and narratives.
