I'm a multidisciplinary artist, alias Zerø K, producing abstract works I call " metafractals ", hybrid images made by combining photographs with fractals, among other transformations. On the photorealist side, I have a nice catalog of nature photography of Costa Rica, where I now live. I sell these by consignment in a number of local boutiques in my area. Also recently I have been appointed the official photographer of the Chaine des Rotisseurs , a French culinary society that produces fantastic dinner events in my "neighborhood".
I am always developing metafractals alongside the nature shots and often produce these pieces in large format (30" x 40" and larger) as a framed acrylic "painting" on canvas (museum quality giclée) or true color photograph (Durst Lambda/Lightjet). These are relatively new and advanced processes- I love the glossy quality and rich color of the Lambdas, but have to travel to the U.S. to produce them. The giclées are more economical and have the highest color quality and longevity (200 years!) that I have ever seen in digital print technology. Each large format metafractal is unique in that it typically is produced for a client from a selection of unused designs or a specific exhibition of which I do not make multiple copies.
One more thing about my dedication to production quality: Unlike many digital artists, I do not produce collector pieces using standard inkjet technology because it still has color and longevity issues. I believe that the proliferation of this cheap technology is one of the reasons digital art has been stigmatized from being taken seriously enough in the "high art" world (and on down). I aim to change that!
Here is a review of my exhibition "Windows to Infinity" at the National Gallery in San José, Costa Rica.

GOOD NEWS! My metafractal work has been accepted to the tenth annual Bridges Conference in Donostia, Spain! Each year, this conference showcases mathematical connections in art, music, and science at a different international location. I am very proud to have had all five of my submissions accepted to this exclusive exhibition!
Check out the accepted works and let me know what you think.
UPDATE: Well I've made it back from my European tour- I decided to expand my trip to include Amsterdam and Paris, as well as the beautiful Basque towns of Spain (San Sebastian, Zurriola, Guernica, and Bilbao). Here are some pictures ! Don't forget to view the photos "full size"- many photos, especially the panoramic shots are posted at the maximum 1024 pixels wide ;)
