I am a designer and art director specialized in computer imaging.
My professional working universe Electric Gobo is built on design, architecture, landscape, interior and lighting, a fusion of several creative disciplines.
Sincere attraction towards spaces charged with human stories and myths has always been there: from abstract spaces like Turrell light installations, architectural spaces of big cities and small settlements, up to vernacular spaces such as dioramas, tunnels or hidden structures in wilderness, and many more spaces in between. I merge all of them into one visual stream.
Whether AI, CG or DSLR, thorough topical research, creative invention and careful curation of image series is required to control the balance between generative synthesis and human inspiration in the old art and craft of image creation.
Always curious. Let's work together!
