Artists working in the field of so-called New Media have been experimenting with this medium for sometime now. As with the time when experimental film was emerging, I feel that the realm of digital media is at a moment of potential.
I think that artists who work successfully with New Media use it as a mode of operation for creating art experiences, rather than a focusing on novelty or self-reflective technicality. I am interested in using media forms as tool to create art. I believe artworks operate best when they have a relationship with real life. I insert technology as a part of poetic relationship between life and objects.
At the moment I am studying toward a Masters of Fine Arts at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Here, I am in an environment where people from all over the world push and critically extend each other. There is accessible, experimental art scene here and I feel that being here allows me to be a part of what art is 'now', and where it is going.
