Bio
Faro, 1991. Rodrigo Gomes is a Portuguese media artist based in Lisbon. Through audiovisual sculpture and new media, Gomes seeks to explore the space among digital and physical entities by creating a hybrid relationship between matter and images generated by computers and machine learning. His work has been exhibited widely in many countries such as China, Serbia, Greece, USA, Poland, France, and Portugal. In 2021 won the D-Normal V-Essay Floating Points Award in Hong Kong, in 2020 the Black Raven Award (PT), in 2018 the Prémios Novos (PT) and in 2017 the Sonae Media Art Award (PT).
