# About the Artist – JAMES VAN IPO

**JAMES VAN IPO – Contemporary Mixed Media Artist | Austria**

JAMES VAN IPO is an Austrian artist whose works explore the boundaries between digital art and physical materiality.

Under the artistic motto **“Between Code and Reality”** he connects digital image compositions with traditional and experimental refinement techniques.

His works arise in a multi-step process: digitally developed compositions are transferred to high-quality image supports and then hand-worked in the studio with epoxy resin and other materials.

Through selectively applied resin layers, three-dimensional structures, glossy accents and relief-like surfaces emerge, which depending on the incidence of light convey different visual effects.

Characteristic of his artistic handwriting are clear lines, controlled digital disturbances, strong contrasts and the combination of precise digital design with individually executed artisanal interventions.

**Each physical work is an individually hand-refined one-off (1/1).**

The hand-applied resin structures give selected image areas additional spatial depth and create an interplay of matte surfaces, glossy elements and light reflections.

It is not an untreated art print, but an independently hand-refined physical artwork.
