ARTIST

Ben Pekarek

Working with digital technology as a medium for artistic expression, I often feel constrained by available display options. Typical consumer products such as projectors, televisions, computer monitors, headphones, and speakers are often used in raw unaltered states. My current installation work strives to break free from the traditional, and seek out alternate methods of presenting my work.

The process of coming up with ideas for what imagery I want to use/create is typically birthed from sessions of creative exploration. Once a canvas is decided upon, a period of uninterrupted workflow commences that often yields interesting results that would otherwise be averted through pre-conceptualization.

Common themes in my work involve futurism, the merging of futuristic and modern themes, as well as nature encroaching on technology.
