Artist Statement

Filmmaking has always fascinated me, and I have made documentary films, experimental films, and art videos. Recently, I have been very interested in the fusion of art and technology, which never ceases to fascinate me. I have been converting numbers that appear in data sets into images and sounds, and animating them to create experimental videos. I practice seeing and thinking about things from different perspectives. And realizing this as art may be my theme at this time. I want to create my own innovative expression, like the works expressed by Marcel Duchamp and John Cage.

In this Belgrade Artist Residency, I want to use AI (Artificial Intelligence) as a tool to create my work. I believe that collaboration between humans and machine-learned artificial intelligence will expand the world of creation.
