Thanks to Sohan and all the fine folks who showed up to the artist talk last Saturday! We dove deep into the creation process of Sohan and contemplated the intersection of art, science and technology.
Though the pieces in the show are physically drawn by a cnc drawing tool, they are created with the traditional art making supplies of paint, graphite and handmade paper and driven and guided by and guided by a thoughtful, creative and inquisitive artist/scientist.
A balance between the human and the machine, with humanity showing through onto the paper.
Come see the show in person! Up until March 15, Thursday -Sunday 12-6. Pieces are all professionally framed with museum glass and are available for purchase online and in the gallery.
Real Art On Real Walls.

Attention Is All You Need #3
Acrylic on Arches paper
18.5” x 26.75”, framed in museum glass
2025

“I wanted to try something a bit more figurative and surreal. I’m inspired by sculpture, pottery, and the 3d printed aesthetic, and brought a bit of each to this series. The background elements were hand painted while the central green form was algorithmically generated and painted with the robot.”

This piece is part of our current show Catastrophic Forgetting and is available online and in the gallery.

“Completed in July 2025. I wanted to explore different forms of movement using my technique, this time introducing a spiraling element, in addition to the ripples and wave-like motion found in my other pieces. The algorithm I designed for this series varies the smoothness and regularity of the spirals.”
