Fluke is
a Wellington-based artist creating digital amalgams sourced from found objects
on the internet and from his own photography. His work explores the
juxtaposition of the traditional with the unconventional in a digital context.
The work observes and questions the tension between the temporal and the eternal.
Flukeās use
of both organic shapes and pixelated forms serve as references to living
organisms as well as the world of technology. These patterns cohabitate in
harmony, often superimposed upon the other, to create a reverie of
unpredictable movement and transparent effects.
In 2013, Fluke
was the recipient of the Emerging Artist Trust Award and has received two
Awards of Excellence from Creative Quarterly in New York for their 45th
(2017) and 54th (2019) editions respectively and was selected as one
of Creative Quarterly's Best 100 artists in 2017.
Fluke has
recently exhibited his work at Gallery MC, New York and Miranda Kuo Gallery,
New York, CICA Museum, South Korea and the Mexican Museum of Design, Mexico.
