This interview dives into Paul Prudence’s journey into merging the historic, technical, and aesthetic aspects of textiles with digital art. Inspired initially by Bauhaus textile artists, the artist pursued textile design before returning to the medium through a digital lens. His work draws on the historical connections between textiles and computing, particularly the Jacquard loom’s influence on early computer programming. Through Unicode characters, he explores patterns akin to woven textiles and early computer aesthetics, creating a textured digital tapestry that recalls the tactile quality of physical fabrics. His upcoming series, "ISO/IEC 10646," evokes nostalgia for early computing while incorporating contemporary generative techniques, bridging past and present in a cohesive narrative. This work also reflects influences from video game aesthetics, concrete poetry, and traditional framing methods, embodying a deep interplay between physicality and digital expression. Each piece is selected to contribute to a coherent body that reflects both difference and unity within the broader concept.
