Lars Wander

Visual artist searching for the balance between human and machine.

“I think there’s a lot to be explored using a computer to push the creative boundaries in ways that you can’t when you’re not working with fantastical machines. So as much as possible, I try to bring the computer and the machinery to the forefront.”

During the day, Lars works at Google writing visualization software to understand the dynamics of global-scale storage systems, his scientific research was published in IEEE, and at night he makes generative art.

He’s been writing programs to explore complexity for well over a decade, and began publishing his generative artwork in 2020.

Lars Wander is a computer artist, born in Germany, and living in NYC. His visual artwork follows his interests in perception, generative patterns, and computational systems.
