Painted by
a machine

These Paintings are the manifestation of a collaborated work pioneered by artist Milan Sipek. His partner in this endeavor is none other than virtual reality and the machine that puts the vision into reality. Each piece is but a captured moment in an ever-expanding process, where the mind of the man can better influence the metal instruments that dance to each instruction. A ball captured in painting, each step composed in tandem, its context gently phrased in text to leave space for its performance.
