Michael Strevens is a London-based digital artist who creates hypnotic, geometric abstractions that discover human presence contained in the digital panorama. His signature throughout each paintings is a minute, solitary human silhouette tucked inside intricate graphic patterns, changing what would in any other case be a flat optical abstraction into an immense, labyrinthine structure.
Strevens works with an uncommon constraint: he crafts his complicated items fully utilizing cellular units and cellular photo-editing purposes. Ranging from architectural images and concrete geometry shot throughout Europe, he makes use of manipulation instruments to isolate traces, repeat types, distort vanishing factors, and inject glitch aesthetics.
His aesthetic alternates between stark monochromatic distinction and vivid, pulsing neon gradients (electrical pinks, cyans, and deep violets). He embraces the spirit of glitch artwork—”digitally destroying or corrupting the info in a picture and turning it into one thing new”—earlier than setting up geometric order again out of the fragments.
