Artist’s Invisible Presence frames absence as presence through a generative audio system. Each edition contains no visual – only emptiness of the canvas and the invisible presence of the artist.
How to experience the presence?

The generative algorithm constructs specific dramaturgy for each piece through unique binaural audio compositions, orchestrating the sounds of an artist’s physical presence (heartbeat, breath, footsteps) with precise spatial positioning. The parameters defining each composition – aspect ratio, orientation, frequency and duration of sounds, stereo panning – become the conceptual framework (documented in the Features section).
The work exists primarily in the moment of encounter between listener and audio space. Without the viewer’s engagement, the artist’s presence remains latent, unmanifested. With engagement, the viewer’s imagination completes the circuit, transforming absence into presence.
The collection enacts the artist’s original mechanism for unfolding a collection, first introduced in LOOK. AT. YOURSELF.: the number of editions eligible for minting corresponds to the artist’s age, with each new year unlocking a new available work – thus embedding the artist’s life and passage of time directly into the evolving architecture of the collection.
