James Grossman is a Multidisciplinary Artist based in London (2001). His work employs the experimentation of new technologies that result in tactile installations. Addressing our innate need for touch. Combining his background in Product Design with his love of form and sculpture he explores the relationships between organic forms in the natural and digital realms. The formulation of his designs is primarily constructed through simulations and digital craftsmanship to create works incorporating themes of tactility, connection, and containment.
He aims to capture obscure movement across a variety of mediums, by experimenting with advanced technologies. By doing so he plans to investigate speculative futures and inspire his audience to consider unexplored questions.
