Mathias Bengtsson is one of the most innovative artists today working with digital technologies to push the boundaries of art and design. For the past twenty years Mathias Bengtsson has been working with the organic form and there is something truly ambitious and audacious in his efforts to breach the barriers between nature and human artifice.
Working with diverse industrial materials and processes, Mathias Bengtsson pushes forward the sculptural, technical, and philosophical possibilities of three-dimensional design, blending new and old technologies into a revolutionary organic form. Creating forms that are analogous to Nature (and no longer an imitation) by using Nature’s own secrets and laws of growth is a Promethean enterprise, and his latest ‘Membrane and ‘Growth’ works are masterfully illustrating the thinning boundary between the natural and the artificial.
