DATA WRETCH: BIO-DIGITAL ALCHEMY
Data Wretch cultivates immersive environments where the digital and the organic converge. Working with a blend of analog and digital video methods, their practice explores themes of religion, identity, sexuality, nostalgia, spirituality, and other faets of the human condition. Their work often embraces aesthetic dissonance to mirror humanity’s complex relationship with the machines we evolve alongside.
One example of this approach is their recent installation at FEED Media Art Center, New Eden Relay (NER). The installation explores the concept of growth by allowing living plant life to develop alongside installed media art. Through this coexistence, Data Wretch seeks to blur the line between technology and the natural order, highlighting how both the world and humanity have evolved in tandem with technological systems.

In addition to installation work, Data Wretch’s creative practice includes live visual performances in collaboration with musical artists. They describe live performance as one of the purest ways to blend technology with the spirit of nature and humanity, creating a meditative space to engage with their work on a deeper level. By merging technological artistry with the immediacy of live performance, Data Wretch creates one-of-a-kind experiences shaped by the music, the musicians, and the audience.
