Digital Aquarelle_12

Aaron Scheer

Edition 1 of 1

Aaron Scheer’s Digital Aquarelles unite art and technology, as if they were and always have been of the same ideology. Technology is accelerating humanity towards an inevitable and digitally consuming future. Scheer’s Digital Aquarelles submerge us in the same way. We are inviting the digital into more than just our homes and daily routine, rather, we are inviting it into ourselves, our bodies and our minds. Transhumanism looms. Scheer’s digital paintings alert us to this. Their enclosed blurs swarm our vision and force our eyes to dart across the plane, looking for an escape. However, as the technological continues to alter our identities, an escape is not possible. Instead, we fall back in untroubled resignation as we allow the digital void to take control. Technology is becoming humanised, and humans are becoming technologically transformed.

Created on a variety of digital devices, Aaron Scheer’s works utilise the digital realm to expand what painting can be and mean today by combining elements of collage, photography and painterly technique. The artist\’s process involves the use of free digital gestures, keyboard commands and touchpad swipes, which once completed, can be read as an abstracted version of contemporary digital activities. Full of vibrant and vivid color palettes, Scheer\’s works are infused with distortions, static, and blips that contrast with subtle gradations of luminous color saturations. Through his art, Scheer questions the idea of the human in technology and the technological in the human. Thereby, allowing him to explore the challenges that an increasingly digitised world presents, such as virtual matter, perceptions of the real, automated production, big data, technocracy and contemporary working cults. His work has been extensively shown internationally at, among others, Museum of Contemporary Digital Art (MoCDA), The Wrong Biennale, KÖNIG GALERIE, Boros Foundation, Annka Kultys Gallery, OFFICE IMPART, Sunday Art Fair, Art Brussels, isthisit or Offsite Project. His works are part of notable collections such as Sammlung Wemhöner or Kunstmuseum Bonn. Aaron Scheer is an active member of the international artist group darktaxa-project.
