Template:Unreviewed Subject of my article is ...
Rafael Rozendaal is a Dutch-Brazilian visual artist currently living and working in New York.
“Artists do the same thing over and over throughout time, responding to their surroundings with the tools they have.”
“Art can’t be defined. Try it. It can’t be done. We all kind of know what it is but no one really knows. No one really knows what happiness is either. The moment you know it, you’re not really happy. When you’re really happy, you’re not thinking about happiness.”
Born in 1980 to two artists, Rozendaal naturally picked up drawing and painting from a young age. As a young boy Rozendaal’s uncle would buy his drawings for a bit of small change. Rozendaal quickly discovered that selling his work meant that he would never see his creation again. This led him to turn to printmaking, allowing him to still keep a copy for himself. This belief of Rozendaal’s was furthermore awakened with the invention of the internet. Allowing him to use the platform as a free space to connect with potential audiences.
Artistic Practice
Rozendaal’s artistic practice is most well known for his moving images and websites. However also expands to art installations, drawings, articles and lectures. He describes his work as, “researches the screen as a pictorial space, reverse engineering reality into condensed bits, in a space somewhere between animated cartoons and paintings. His installations involve moving light and reflections, taking online works and transforming them into spatial experiences.”
BYOB
Rozendaal also founded BYOB (Bring Your Own Beamer) an installation concept that allows artists to bring their own projector to a certain space and project their moving image works onto the walls. With this concept Rozendaal wanted to bring the internet to a real life physical space and allow viewers to ‘walk through the internet’.
Selling Websites
Rozendaal’s www.ifnoyes.com website recently sold for $3500 at an auction at Phillips auction house in New York.
