Art Plural Gallery presents an interview with Pascal Dombis, a French visual artist whose unpredictable and dynamic visual forms explore the complexities of visual paradoxes through the use of 'excessive' technological process.
Born in 1965, Dombis graduated with a Bachelor in Engineering from Insa University in Lyon, France before settling on pursuing an artistic career. For more than twenty years, he has been using computers and algorithms to generate elaborate repetitions of simple processes that computationally reproduce geometric or typographical signs. These de-structuring structures and irrational environments disturb, engage and inspire the viewer, posing fascinating paradoxes between the mechanical control and chaotic randomness that produce them.
