During the ART ROTTERDAM Art fair, the Paris based, UN-SPACED Gallery is delighted to present a solo show by Lilah Fowler, a recognized British-Japanese artist. During the fair, her first ever NFT will be auctioned on OPENSEA.IO. The auction will end on Sunday, May 22nd at 9:30 pm CET.

Lilah Fowler’s work has long drawn on the back and forth of digital and analogue processes, and how technology infrastructure is interwoven with our sense of landscape and the world. Developed from a public project in Bristol, UK - a site of key developments in computer engineering - Fowler collaborated with a computer programmer to design custom-made software that produced unlimited and unique digital patterns. The patterns themselves vary enormously, creating an extensive archive of 1000’s of uniquely detailed digital images. After looking at methods of data modeling and how we selectively evaluate all of our data, Fowler became interested in the initial stages of making such information legible; most often these processes began by picking data comparison-starting points in hugely arbitrary ways. This bespoke software was built to reflect this randomness that is found in these early stages of data modeling, to create images that reflect on how we evaluate, comprehend and visualise our data.

In line with Fowler's conceptual concerns and her computer generated data patterns, Fowler is now presenting her first ever NFT. '14261' is a unique NFT, an animation of the pattern-building process used within this strand of her work. With the images produced by the bespoke software, some of the layers are not always visible at the end; this discloses some of software’s building of a pattern, something that is playful, quick, while also, in its own way, an archeology of the hierarchies of data visualisation.
