About his work:
Refik Anadol’s practice explores what it means to be human in the age of artificial intelligence. By envisioning “post-digital architecture,” he redefines the role of buildings as dynamic, data-driven interfaces. His large-scale installations and data paintings draw from archives such as NASA’s Mars Mission, transforming vast data sets into poetic visual experiences that blur the lines between physical and virtual spaces.
