Kim Asendorf, a digital artist from Germany, joined the net art movement in 2008 with a particular focus on exploring internet culture as an experimental environment for conceptual strategies. Asendorf's visual world is made of raw, visual pixels, inspired by nineties consoles and an era of computer graphics in which every attempt at representation would betray the abstract, rectangular shape of the pixel. In our contemporary world of interpolation screens, which present images with more pixels on the screen than actually exist in the image matrix, his works seem to pierce beneath the surface of the display and remind us of an earlier, more immediate relationship with the display.
Anyone who has sat daydreaming in front of a screensaver as a child, mesmerized by the movement on the screen and oblivious to their actual tasks, will find a sense of nostalgia and recognition in the absorption offered by Cargo.
