Rafaël Rozendaal
Rafaël Rozendaal is a visual artist who uses the internet as his canvas. His artistic practice consists of websites, installations, drawings, and writing. Spread out over hundreds of domain names, he attracts a large online audience, more than 12 million unique visits per year.
His work researches the screen as a pictorial space, reverse engineering reality into condensed pieces, in a space somewhere between animated cartoons and modernist paintings. His installation focus on moving light and reflections, taking online works and transforming them into a spatial experience.
He also created BYOB (Bring Your Own Beamer), an open source DIY curatorial format that is spreading across the world rapidly.
