About
Kristian Touborg combines painting as classic medium and digital tools and synthetic products to explore the field between figuration and abstraction, between oil paint and digital models, between original and copy, between painter and algorithm. Using both digital and analogue methods which merge – sometimes seamlessly, sometimes blatantly visibly – into a distinctive and almost symbiotic mode of expression, Kristian Touborg hints at something that is deeply intimate while at the same time flirting with the precursors to “artificial” personality and the challenges of using new technology in the struggle to express a personal feeling or mood.
