Jochem Esser is a visual artist who explores traditional techniques in relation to the digital realm. He is fascinated by the way in which technology mediates the way we see the world, and the influence of humans in this process. His work forms a dialogue between crafted physical objects and electronic media, altering the viewer experience. Focusing on these different layers creates new meanings and relations between spectators and the installation.
