About

Elliott Highmore is a 3D Artist and AI Researcher from a Fine Art background that is based in London. Highmore was born in 1999 in East London and grew up in Essex, now he has been based in South London for 4 years. He works within liminal spaces that the use of 3D & AI technology allows him to materialise, there is an interplay between mathematics and beauty in his artistry. He is deeply engaged with emerging technology discourse and has worked on a plethora of AI projects in various media industries. He studied at UAL Camberwell on the BA Fine Art: Painting pathway with a Creative Computing Diploma at UAL Creative Computing Institute in 2021. 

From the moment I grasped the essence of art and technology, I found myself irreversibly drawn towards their confluence. Blurring the boundaries between my two absorptions in recent years is leading me to my artistic apotheosis. My origins in traditional painting now contrast with my present work, where my canvas is the digital realm, and my brush strokes are rendered in pixels. My creative interests lie within the captivating scope of abstract desire, hypnotism and the divine. My work explores the cyclical yearning for knowledge, a transformative interplay between technology and worship, ultimately manifesting in art forms that echo an unconventional beauty. Hypermnesia is an entrancing digital artwork exhibited at my degree show in June 2023 at UAL Camberwell and in August 2023 at Mall Galleries in London, the work harmoniously intertwines fractals, worship and hypnotism. It consists of six 3D rendered fractal videos composed into a video sequence with a custom score. The individual works are: - Sierpinski - Hypertrophy - Paenitentia - Palimpsest - Diplasios - Amalgam
