“Waves and Lines, Interlocking, Interweaving, Ever Flowing, Fixed in Time"
Nadieh Bremer’s artwork wavʌves (pronounced waves) leverages the artist’s playful use of color to convey a sense of interaction. Distinct blocks combine with groups of fluid lines, suggesting the parallel creative processes and intersecting practices at the heart of the N=12. Bremer’s work is intentionally abstract and left to the viewer for interpretation.
“N=12 is an experiment in building intentional community, with 12 artists collaborating across seven time zones. Contemporary computer-based artists create their work while connected to an effectively infinite network of information. This affords artists the capacity for infinite input and collaboration, leaving them to distill these disparate connections and experiences into their artwork. Distinctly, the computer artist’s principal tool for creation is also a means for connection. This exhibition leans into the inherent proximity of computer users by explicitly asking 12 artists to create work while in constant dialogue with one another. These artists convened and collaborated online over several months, sharing their code and artistic processes while fostering a co-creative microcosm enriched by weekly meetings, aesthetic critiques, code reviews, and vibrant discussion.” — Aaron Penne
