Stephen Linhart | Works | About | Links |
Contact: stephenlinhart@gmail.com Stephen Linhart's works are not meant to be observed only in their
entirety; on the contrary, the deeper you go, the more immersive the
experience will be. In fact, when observed very closely or enlarged,
every single detail leads to a multiplicity of possible forms and
interpretations, which continue to change as one enters the work. Almost
like fractals, his pieces are structured in a way that… alters the
perceptual system by allowing us to pass through previously non-existent
passages.
— Francesca Brunello
Stephen Linhart—a New Yorker living in Massachusetts—creates digital art, collage, vector and algorithmic art and photography in an eclectic combination of surreal, psychedelic, abstract and expressionist styles. Не creates his works with a camera and then processes them in digital post-production. His source materials include his own photographs, but also stock photos and timeless art from the past. Starting with scans, photographs and mathematical abstractions, he fuses, combines and composes to create new, unexplored worlds. — Salma Eltoukhy
Statement In the digital manipulation of fine art and photography, I’m exploring the relationship between collage, pop art and algorithmic art; a wilderness of possibilities. I process and combine images to create an image-space, which I explore and sample. It’s something like finding pretty shells on a beach, except that first I have to make the beach. I find a glimpse of something—a shell—then I compose the image to capture that glimpse.
