ILL.DES is a Romanian American abstract artist based in Denver, CO whose work is rooted in geometric shapes and technology. With a background in computer engineering, he brings elements of technology into their art, creating visually striking pieces that represent the balance between chaos and order. His style is characterized by the use of gradients of color and intricate patterns that create a sense of depth and movement. Their compositions are filled with vibrant colors, geometric shapes, and organic linework. The use of optical illusions and visual effects in their pieces adds to the illusive nature of their work and is influenced by the op art movement.
Despite the strong geometric shapes and technological influences, his pieces are not cold or mechanical. Instead, their work reflects the complexities and contradictions of the natural world. The use of symmetry and repetition creates a sense of order, while the use of unexpected shapes and colors adds a sense of chaos and unpredictability. Together, their unique compositions form a perfect equilibrium of harmony and discord. ILL.DES’ work has been exhibited in galleries in cities such as Denver, Atlanta, Miami, Philadelphia as well as internationally. He has painted murals across the US and Europe, often infusing technology through Augmented Reality.
