"The goal of my aesthetics is to achieve an abstract beauty that resembles nature. 

 

As a digital artist, I am dedicated to exploring new realms of aesthetics beyond merely pursuing the visual beauty of my works. 

I use art as a language to share and express the emotions I experience. 

The colors, forms, and vitality of nature consistently evoke a sense of awe in me, serving as my greatest source of inspiration. 

 

My work encapsulates the profound impact and the complex, abstract memories and emotions that these natural elements evoke. 

I express these through various materials, such as data and digital sculptures. Inspired by nature, I explore the abstract beauty that mirrors the essence of the natural world. 

 

My aesthetic journey is aimed at realizing the abstract beauty of nature. I am committed to capturing the primal and majestic beauty of nature in my works, allowing viewers to experience and reflect on the profound connection between humanity and the natural world. Through my art, I strive to bridge the gap between the tangible and the intangible, offering a sensory exploration that celebrates the intricate dance of life."

CLAUDE is a new media artist based in Seoul. 

He explores the organic dynamics and mystical vitality between humans and nature by merging the forms of nature with data through technological algorithms. 

Drawing inspiration from the beauty of nature such as its colors, forms, and harmonies, he delves into abstract and complex emotions psychologically. 

His primary focus lies in conveying these emotions to the audience through various forms of artwork, thus creating new meanings of aesthetics.

His works reinterpret and express the beauty of nature through digital artworks, capturing the diverse emotions humans feel when experiencing the vastness of nature, such as awe and reverence.

 

His works have been showcased and performed at prestigious art institutions and festivals worldwide, including the Melbourne International Film Festival, Intervals Festival, SAT Montreal, Mutek Montreal, Artechouse Washington DC, New York Times Square, and the Asia Culture Center. Establishing CLAUDE STUDIO in Korea, he collaborates with various corporations and national institutions such as the Korea Exchange, Samsung, the Seoul Metropolitan Government, the National Museum of Korea, the National Science Museum, and the National Theater, gaining recognition in Korea's digital art and new media art scene.
