Dip (The original artwork + NFT) Artwork

Alfred Stoll has been working in the visual arts since 2020, with a focus on digital art. Alfred works with new media and studies the influence of metamodernism on contemporary art. Using digital techniques such as Augmented and Virtual Reality, generative art, digital painting and drawing, and 3D modelling, Alfred creates digital collages and media installations that play with post-irony, sensuality, tenderness, and the grotesque. Alfred's works are passionately dedicated to depicting visions of the contemporary aesthetic context and reinterpreting traditional images of reality to change the rules of the social game. Alfred aims to define the artistic value and meaning of digital art today and to determine the role of the artist in shaping digital art in the future. In February 2023, Alfred published the "Metamodern Art Manifesto". Artist statement In the art community and his works, Alfred Stoll is interested in topics such as: The influence of digital approaches and techniques on contemporary art and on the artist​ Determining the artistic value and importance of digital art today​ Defining the artist's role in the creation of art in the future Contemporary art in the Metamodern age In his works, Alfred Stoll doesn’t use the digital environment as analog instruments, such as a brush and a canvas. The process of creation lies in a combination of techniques: Invert colors, double exposure, distortion, multiple overlay, stylization, motion, video collage, Augmented reality (AR) and Mixed Reality (MR), 3D modelling, AI / generative art as well as digital drawing and painting, which differs greatly to the usual artistic techniques, not having basic methodology of use and implementation, they require a different approach and often resemble an alchemical experiment. His digital laboratory fits into his smartphone and laptop, always with him, easy to use and doesn't require anything from him besides his interest in digital experimentation. »Metamodernism is my field of work. I play with post-irony, sensuality, tenderness and the grotesque. In the process, I integrate artworks from other eras into my collages and digital paintings. I focus on aesthetic processes of the present and precisely observe the emergence of new phenomena in culture and society. I am concerned with visualising my authenticity and my visions in the current aesthetic context.
