elementum Podcast: Recent Episodes
Marlene Wenger
In this show we speak with artists and critics and deep dive into the ethics and aesthetics of the new power of art in the digital realm.
In the third elementum podcast, we had the pleasure to meet Ana Hoffmann, one of the very first artists that we featured on our platform. She tells us about how she came to know about NFTs at the Rare Art Festival in New York in 2019 and how she has been more and more interested in this technology since then. Ana has a background in photography and she reveals how the different media of music, photography and video merge together in her works Black Ink on White Paper and Stripes in the Hood.
For the second elementum art podcast, we met with Timo Ullmann in his home in Aarau. He elaborated on the conception of his body of work entitled «The Screentest Series», that he produced especially for elementum. We spoke about how his performative videoworks are questioning the levels of perception and how he works with the actual materiality of the screens. For him, the elementum platform provides the opportunity to explore new forms of virtually displaying his work in a digital exhibition space that is open 24/7.
In the first edition of the elementum art podcast, we had the pleasure to meet Jonas Baumann, a painter and digital artist based in Basel, Switzerland. We spoke about how the digital and the analog sphere merge in his work and how different motives and ideas can easily travel from one to the other world. He will also reveal why it is interesting for him to be represented on the elementum platform and what he thinks about the current NFT hype.
