Artistic research

In my artistic research, I combine critical inquiry with creative practice to explore complex cultural and technological transformations. By bringing together analysis and artistic experimentation, I investigate how emerging technologies reshape perception, visual culture, and contemporary experience. My work examines how digital tools, platforms, and infrastructures influence artistic expression, aesthetic forms, and the ways images are produced, circulated, and perceived.

I am particularly interested in the impact of mobile media, generative artificial intelligence, extended reality (AR/VR), algorithmic aesthetics, and digital interactivity on contemporary visual culture. My projects often address adaptation, fragmentation, ephemerality, and sensory overload as defining conditions of technologically mediated environments.

I also engage with broader socio-technological questions, including technocolonialism, the digital divide, algorithmic opacity, and the ecological cost of computation. I approach technology not as a neutral tool, but as a dynamic and unstable system that shapes both artistic form and lived experience. Drawing on medium theory, medium specificity, and cybernetic thought, I examine how digital infrastructures affect visual language, cultural practices, and human perception.

My artistic research moves between conceptual reflection, qualitative inquiry, and experimental form. I treat art not only as a mode of expression, but also as a method of investigation: a way of making technological conditions visible, perceptible, and critically graspable.

Creative methodology

To investigate these phenomena, I have developed an original research methodology that integrates artistic practice with theoretical and qualitative inquiry. This interdisciplinary approach includes:

  • Art-based research – using creative production as a mode of critical investigation, where artworks function both as research tools and as outcomes.

  • Netnography – observing and analysing user-generated aesthetics, behaviours, and visual cultures across mobile and online platforms.

  • In-depth interviews and qualitative observation – engaging with vusers, artists, designers, and digital creators to better understand contemporary creative practices and mediated experience.

  • Comparative visual analysis – tracing how technological change transforms artistic disciplines such as painting, photography, film, design, and digital art.

  • Medium specificity analysis – applying and further developing my own research tool for examining the formal, sensory, and cultural properties of new media visuals.

This methodology allows me to work across art, research, and critical reflection, while remaining attentive to both the aesthetic and the social dimensions of technological change.
