Blending Materiality in Digital Art

India Aparicio’s current exploration into abstract forms marks a significant evolution in her artistic journey. By delving into the realm of abstract art, she not only challenges the conventional boundaries of visual representation but also engages in a deeper exploration of materiality and perception. The abstract forms she creates are not random; they are meticulously designed to emulate the textures of various materials, from the roughness of stone to the smoothness of silk, bridging the tactile and the visual in a digital medium.

Distortions, color effects, and repetitions play a crucial role in India’s creation of a three-dimensional illusion on a two-dimensional plane. Through skillful manipulation of these elements, she challenges the flatness of the digital canvas, suggesting depth and volume where none physically exists. The distortions twist and stretch the abstract forms, warping the viewer’s perception of space and scale. Color effects add another layer of complexity, with gradients and contrasts mimicking the way light interacts with physical objects, further enhancing the illusion of three-dimensionality. Repetitions reinforce the visual rhythm of the piece, creating patterns that seem to move and evolve, suggesting the dynamic nature of the physical world.

interactive series of artworks

The Emotional Damage series of images is presented as giclée prints of digital artworks that explore basic human emotions in a unique form. Five of the basic human emotions – anger, joy, sadness, disgust, or fear – are visualized as circles in different colors and dynamics. These creative representations merge in combination to form emotional images that intend to depict the emotional complexity of situations.

The artist not only presents abstract visualizations but also creates personal creations, including Eine wütende Frau (An Angry Woman), Eine erste Verabredung (A First Date), Wolkendecke (A Cloud Cover) and Gefühlsexplosion (Emotional Explosion). Each artwork is an expression that highlights the diversity and individuality of human emotions.

What sets Emotional Damage apart is not only the visual representation but also the computer program developed by the artist: an image generator, which the artist programmed herself, allows viewers to input the intensity of their own specific feelings on a monitor. The result is individual emotional images that can be interpreted in different ways.

between Surrealism and Dreamcore

In her older works, India Aparicio combined a variety of motifs, including eyeballs, metaballs, and chessboard patterns. She often created images that depict a landscape with a chessboard pattern as the foundation. Through clever distortions and shading, they give the impression of spatiality, while geometric shapes and eyes enliven the scene. Additionally, recurring gates leading into a dark space streaked with stars are found.

India Aparicio’s artworks are characterized by a striking vitality that captivates the viewer. Beyond aesthetic aspects, her works also contain a narrative component that challenges the viewer’s perception and stimulates the imagination. She skillfully combines technique with emotional expressiveness, thus creating abstract worlds that exert a fascinating attraction.

About the Artist

India Aparicio is an artist, developer, and designer from Berlin. She has successfully completed her bachelor’s degree in media design and is currently pursuing her master’s degree in Creative Technologies. Since 2020, she has discovered her interest in the digitization of art and has since dedicated herself to creating unique digital illustrations and artworks.

Her artistic style may have evolved over the years, but it always remains marked by its distinctive touch. Her early works are defined by eyeballs, metaballs, and other surrealistic motifs that shape the aesthetics. Currently, she is exploring more abstract forms that seem to imitate the texture of various materials. The compositions and aesthetics are deliberately chosen and justified by gestalt psychological effects. Through distortions, color effects, and repetitions, a three-dimensional illusion of her two-dimensional works is created.
