DVD- Data Vaeda

This artwork is a collaboration with my dear friend and music maestro Jonathan Walter. After working together for over a decade we have finally found a beautiful creative synergy with our new project Dat Vaeda.

This piece has many parts. The main character is taken from one of my physical paintings and then digitised and accentuated. The background is a series of AI-generated pieces derived from another one of my paintings. Then of course, there is the wonderful music from my ‘genius’ mate Jonathan.

DVD asks us to remember to be patient and NEVER take our eye off the prize.

I know that passion combined with unfaltering belief and consistent action is the key to reaching any destination, I’ve travelled this path before. And now I find myself embarking on a new journey. DVD is symbolic of this adventure. If the truth is told, I’m full of beans and can’t wait for the magic to unfold.

I want to share an important element of art with you. Much of my work features a whimsical character who will be looking toward a reference point. This point is symbolic of my darkest hour. When I refer to this point in relation to my life in the present moment my experience of beauty is accentuated. It’s this experience that I believe is a saving grace. This reminds me to stay grateful and also focused on my dreams.

I want to say a big thank you to Future Art boys for this awesome collaboration! Full respect
