"Jeffrey Ventrella contributes “Cosmic Atom” (as seen above),
a 30″x30″ metal print created with generative algorithms that
echo both micro and macro worlds—a convergence of art, code and imagination"
- Pacific Sun, Culture Crush, 7/16 |
While half the world’s artist population frets over a looming tech
apocalypse (looking at you, AI)...Jeffrey
Ventrella has already achieved mastery over the machines.
His work, with lunar-like leitmotifs of mandala-like forms, appears both ancient and futuristic, organic and technological. The sense of scale reels between the minute and the vast, as some works evoke the vignetting of a microscope slide or peering into a telescope. Ventrella achieves these results with an artist’s eye and a coder’s acumen for telling algorithms what to do, and as such, is among a new wave of computer-aided creators who are blurring the lines between artist and medium. - Daedalus Howell, 2024 ![]() "Sentience" - Lori Austin Gallery
