“I want to use AI art to become the best version of myself, and to merge traditional and digital art in my own way.” Dani Joy
Dani Joy is an artist based in Northern California who loves to create and experiment with traditional and technological tools. His work ranges from drawing to painting to sculpture.
He is self-taught in digital art and has studied computer science and algorithmic design. Fascinated by the new digital media, he incorporated the latter in his practice to synthesize new styles and open the doors to a new form of collaboration between himself and the machine.
In this interview he will talk about his background and the reasons that led him, at the beginning, to refuse digital tools, to then have a change of heart and insert them constantly in his work. He will share his struggle with dyslexia, his desire to become the best version of himself, the charm of being a cyborg, and his perspective on the future of AI art.
Joy’s work is a stimulating example of how past and present can harmonically shape the future, promoting a dialogue between tradition and novelty to build something more than the sum of the two parts.
