DANIEL ARSHAM

NEIL HARBISSON
CYBORG ARTIST
Born with the inability to see color, Neil Harbisson wears a prosthetic device — he calls it an "eyeborg" — that allows him to hear the spectrum, even those colors beyond the range of human sight. His unique experience of color informs his artwork — which, until he met cyberneticist Adam Montandon at a college lecture, was strictly black-and-white.
Harbisson's artwork blurs the boundaries between sight and sound. In his Sound Portraits series, he listens to the colors of faces to create a microtonal chord. In the City Colours project, he expresses the capital cities of Europe in two colors (Monaco is azure and salmon pink; Bratislava yellow and turquoise). Neil Harbisson - The Future is Exciting
MARCUS GOMAD DEBIE

GOMAD’s work is considered a pinnacle of post-neo cubism, the fusion of photorealistic images in a mind-bending surrealistic setup, against cubistic and organic shapes, in a Picasso or Hieronymus Bosch like composition, combining oil paint, acrylics, and sprays in a vibrant and unique idiosyncratic way.
