Blending art, design and fashion with technology, I’m a specialist in real-time rendering artwork, creating beauty at the cutting edge of new media technologies. 

Based in Amsterdam I work together with talented professionals from all over the world. My approach is exploratory, merging hardware and software to achieve groundbreaking results, a method I call Digital Expressionism.

I’m the creative force behind videOrbit Studio and a co-founder of initiatives like Code Couture, Future Front Row, and L Base Collective. Click on the names of these projects to discover my portfolio.

I've organised my body of work into distinct categories, or 'pillars,' to make it easier to navigate and understand.
This organisation is ever evolving, reflecting the dynamic nature of my work and the industries I engage with.
Consider this both a testament and a snapshot of my portfolio at this moment in time.
I hope you enjoy exploring it as I've enjoyed creating it.
