Guillaume Slizewicz
Guillaume Slizewicz is a designer and digital artist whose work stands at the intersection of technology, environment and societal issues. Through his practice, he explores the tensions between innovation and sustainability, using technology in poetic, evocative and critical ways. His approach builds connections between ancestral craft practices and contemporary digital tools.
With degrees in Political Science, Philosophy and Economics (Kent University) and Production Technology (Copenhagen School of Design and Technology), Guillaume Slizewicz founded his studio in 2021 to explore these relationships through digital art and collection design. His works often combine physical materials - metal, wood, clay - with digital processes such as algorithms, artificial intelligence and computer-aided manufacturing. Guillaume Slizewicz's artistic thinking goes beyond materials, expressing itself through a collaborative and experimental methodology. His work is often developed within collectives and in collaboration with other designers.
