About
Artist exploring 3D scanning, computer vision and the still-life tradition.
David Lisser is an artist based in the Netherlands. His work utilises 3D scanning tools to consider how the natural world is simulated via digital interfaces, and the ways that computer vision can lead to new interpretations of what we see.
David’s practice comprises of sculptures, digital renders and short videos that focus on 3D scanning, environmental concerns and the desire to simulate or model physical experience. He considers 3D scanning to be a form of expanded Photography, documenting but also translating the world around us - with its own particular codes and character.
