INTERNET ARTIST SINCE 3001 *///////// FATHER OF MULTIDIMENSIONAL ENTITIES EXPLORING TIME, CONSCIOUSNESS, AND THE EDGES OF SYNTHETIC OBJECTS THROUGH GENERATIVE ART. p1xelfool is an artist from São Paulo who quickly rose to prominence in 2021 for his code-based artworks. Released mostly as animated GIFs and real-time code, p1xelfool’s works are conceptualized with Processing, an open-source and community-led creative coding software. His practice distinctively renders 3D geometric systems as pixelated 2D animations that may be suggestive of scientific diagrams, particle simulations, and otherworldly entities. Despite such evocations, the artist has no intention of referencing the (super) natural world. He is instead intent on creating a visual sphere specific only to the computer; his works exist in their own dimension. p1xel often mentions his interest in the perception of time/space — and its (de)construction — as a starting point for his computational art. In his words: “Do screens, pixels, and code engender a specific ontology, or (inter)subjectivity?” p1xelfool is also known for his community-driven initiatives such as BRG.exe, a foundation investing in and supporting Brazilian generative and digital artists.
