About this artwork
In "Binary Still Life," I combine classical still life tradition with digital aesthetics. Everyday objects such as a telephone, vase, and radio recorder are completely painted with binary codes—symbols of our data-driven present.
The contrast between analog form and digital pattern addresses the changing nature of our perception in the age of digitalization. The work invites reflection on the dialogue between past and future, matter and information.

Thomas Kelm (*1966 in Bamberg) lives and works in the Nuremberg metropolitan region. As a self-taught artist, he has developed an independent artistic practice that combines painting, collage, object art and performance.
At the heart of his work lies the exploration of the tension between nature, humanity, and artificial intelligence. Drawing on influences from street art, pop culture, and subculture, he creates multifaceted visual worlds in which robots, hybrid beings, and figures like Kong or Godzilla become metaphors for a new, human-made nature. His works examine how technological developments are changing our perception, identity, and relationship to the environment.
In addition to large-format paintings, Kelm creates objects and participatory performances in which the relationship between humans and machines becomes directly tangible. His works have been shown in solo and group exhibitions in Germany and internationally, including in New York.
