Untitled V embodies atoms bits painting where physical painted medium materializes digital screen experience—organic colorful forms creating meeting place between world of bits (virtual browsing, net content, digital environments) and world of atoms (actual paint, canvas, physical space). Etem explores fluid condition: how do experiences originating in pixels become tangible painted objects? The work presents ambiguous forms suggesting both biological specimens and digital screenshots—green, pink, orange shapes floating in atmospheric background that evokes screen glow yet exists as actual painted surface. Untitled V demonstrates resignifying narratives from files: appropriating content from net (whether maps, feeds, museum browsing) and transforming into traditional still life medium, creating visual question about contemporary existence where virtual and real coexist fluidly. The painting functions as meeting place materializing how daily experience increasingly occurs through screens yet demands physical expression—atoms and bits not opposing but converging, screen time becoming artistic source, digital browsing yielding painted tangibility in territories diluted by technologies.
 
In this Still Life painting project, exploring the fluid condition between the virtual and real world, the artist  seek to materialize my experiences in digital environments - whether browsing through Google Maps or in the feed of an art museum - generating images as a meeting place between the world of atoms and that of bits*
