The November AiR at InterstellART is Elle Thorkveld. Her exhibit Signal Jam is open through the end of this month.

“Signal Jam presents individual stills from experimental video art. Many of the images shown are a form of glitch art based on manipulation of the source video. Original videos were created using generative processes, machine learning or machinima.”

“They were modified using video processing software in creative sessions, often set to music and captured in real-time. The selected images reflect my love of color and form. They capture fleeting moments in playful creation.” ~ Elle Thorkveld

About Elle Thorkveld ~

“Digital artist who works in a variety of media including: video, generative art, glitch art, music, virtual worlds art, sculpture and installation. My art focuses on the use of color, novel combinations, movement, randomness & unpredictability.
I have exhibited in numerous Second Life galleries and festivals, in Open Sim and in real life venues.”

The exhibit contains a wide range of colors, composition and forms. It’s difficult to choose favorites. I am more drawn to the warm colors at this time.  When you’re done enjoying the Signal Jam exhibit, there’s plenty of other interesting art on the InterstellART sim.

The Symbolic Decay exhibit is of Generative art, a contemporary remix of tribal symbols, with added rust and decay. It is the November AiR exhibit on the InterstellArt sim. 

The digital art is by Elle Thorkveld, an artist focusing on generative and glitch digital 2D and 3D works. Elle says she enjoys creating SL sculpture, installations and experimental machinima. She is a SL and RL photographer, and a RL mixed media artist.

Her work focuses on the use of color, novel combinations, movement, randomness & unpredictability.

I enjoy Elle’s work and am especially drawn to the pieces in this exhibit.

There will be an opening reception this Sunday, November 11 at 10:00 a.m. SLT.

The exhibit runs through November.

Virtual Artefacts by Elle Thorkveld

Virtual Artefacts is the November exhibit at interstellART AiR Gallery. it’s a wonderful collection of generative and glitch process art by Elle Thorkveld; some of the pieces are animated including parts of the 3D sculpture shown in the photo above.

The region light is shown in the photo above and perhaps you’ll find it the best to view the art. I chose sunrise setting on the Lab viewer for the purpose of blog photos.

The exhibit opened on November 5th when I believed it to run through the end of the year. I am disappointed to learn that it is closing sometime during the last week of November.

“Virtual Artefacts is a colorful exploration of creative 2D and 3D digital work produced using generative and glitch processes. Many artworks were created by iteratively using multiple techniques on the same file. Some works were further processed using Dreamscope software which uses AI techniques to create interesting artistic effects.”

“Generative art is a form of art which relies on an autonomous system for some of the artistic decisions. In this case, using computer software to develop the art and to randomly select some of the features of the work. Glitch work focuses on the introduction of error for creative results.”

The pieces are grouped in different sections, some for sale and some not. I am hoping some of these works will be seen again.

“About Elle Thorkveld

Artist focusing on generative and glitch digital art. Enjoys creating SL sculpture, installations, experimental machinima, video and music. SL and RL photographer. RL mixed media artist.”

One of the most striking pieces is the 3D animated “walls” shown in the photo above. I filmed a 2:33 minute vimeo to document the piece which you can see here.

Elle’s Art Lot in Rivulet, Heterocera holds art collections, several on the ground, some in the sky accessed via teleporter.  The Atoll ground texture is enhanced with wildflowers. The water around part of the land has lilies, swans and bamboo contributing to the views and restful feeling to the spaces. The parcel is harmoniously created for the surrounding area as well as expressing Elle Thorkveld’s art and individual taste.           

The TV Room is one of the galleries in the sky showing Elle’s art and was my first learning of the artist Nam June Paik.

Elle Thorkveld is an artist focusing on generative and glitch digital art and music. She enjoys creating SL sculpture, installations and experimental machinima, is a SL and RL photographer and a RL mixed media artist.

Her work focuses on the use of color, novel combinations, movement, randomness & unpredictability.

The Art Collection Gallery is very well curated by her with a sampling of the pieces she’s acquired.

More from her bio: “I started in SL in 2009 and was drawn to inworld photography, joining Elsbeth Writer’s Wandering Photographers of SL. In the past few years I have been working in generative and glitch art & music. I enjoy co-creating with the computer and like the often chaotic and surprising results.”

The Riverboat.

Another gallery has retrospective art on the ground level leading up to this room with two of my favorite pieces.

This light-filled space is near the landing.

Studio at InterstellART, Borneo

The above photo shows her exhibit at The Blue Zebra Project at Nimar.

She has a colorful, animated 3D piece at Immaterial, University of Western Australia.

She’s also exhibited at MBK Gallery and Montara Bridge Works.

The Hillside Gallery on Heterocera is a treehouse exhibit. It’s a great starting place for  exploration. It’s just off The High Mountain Road, seen in the left of the photo.

As of this writing, you can hop off the tree house and walk across the land to the tracks where there are interesting places to explore, one seen in the background. There’s a rez zone nearby and a little further down the tracks to the right of what is shown here is a rest stop for travelers.

Elle is also an active participant with Wanderlust Bench Art Park, Quentin and will be hosting the traveling Wanderlust Art Truck at her Art Lot in Rivulet beginning February 26th for about two weeks.

Elle Thorkveld’s Alchemy Inspiration exhibit at Montara Bridge Works continues through the end of October.

The exhibition features generative and glitch art derived from sketches created using Alchemy software. There’s an animated sculpture on the upper level.

An informal artist chat was held on September 4th where visitors learned more about the process from Elle. The art is available for purchase and a gift piece is available by clicking on the prim under the stairs.

An artist bio and information about the exhibit is available at the gallery.

As curator of the gallery, the informal chat was enjoyable, seeing old friends stop by and meet other avatars. The conversation was lively and interesting, both on- and off-topic.

Informal artist chat Sunday September 4th @ 1 pm SLT. All welcome!

Exhibit open September/October 2016 at Montara Bridgeworks Gallery.

“‘Alchemy Inspiration’ is an exhibit of generative and glitch art derived from sketches created using the Alchemy open drawing project software. Generative art is a form of creative coding, using software to develop art. I use the Processing language in my work. Randomness plays a large part in my arts development, as I enjoy the play of unexpected shape and color.” ~ Elle Thorkveld
