BIO
My practice addresses the cultural effects that technology has on society. My current interest is in the status of craft objects in an age of electronic consumerist culture. I identify crossovers between computer graphics, and craft techniques, and explore these by making tangible art objects.
My latest projects suggest an emotive, quirky, humorous aspect of functional computer graphics and of electronic devices by drawing parallels between their form and function and the techniques and meanings embraced in traditional needle crafts.
I concern myself with the visual appeal of machines and electronics. I am interested in how they are considered as objects of desire, in terms of their fabrication, capabilities, and the status they give the individuals that own them.

Bio
Anna Dumitriu is an artist whose work is heavily inspired by science, in particular medical science and the concept of immortality. The work looks closely at cell biology and the use of supplements to prolong life with recent paintings looking at the Vitamin C molecule. Anna uses an extensive range of materials and techniques including mixed media on canvas, watercolour, and digital or traditional printmaking.
A series of wallpapers based on light micrographs of bacteria and mould spores found on mobile phones during normal everyday use shown at 1000x magnification. These are part of a major sci-art collaboration lead by artist Anna Dumitriu entitled The Normal Flora project, which involves culturing bacteria and moulds from the artist’s domestic environment, a multimedia installation is planned for 2006.

Information
“For public spaces we created an interactive wall, a language between social spaces: couple, family, young, pensioner. The contents are digital: videos, animations, graffiti, texts, icons…
The interface is the mobile phone used for playing with contents and for sending contents like own pictures or texts. The user is a player involved in an artistic behaviour. He can use the wall as a VJ, choosing a DJ mix over his headphones connected to his mobile. The visuals are selected with the mobile over a database of animations, short videos, texts, icons, images, remixing them in real time. Other players are welcome to create a collective artwork. He can also use the wall like a graffiti sprayer, drawing, modifying, changing colours, size of pencils, adding visual effects. The next player can use the same surface or defining an own surface. Using the phone as a pointer he can select some options, customizing his digital spray. The artwork is visible for the public passing by. When the wall is not used, it shows the works of the day.”
“im preparing a project metissage japan made out of a japan trip in 2002 its about interactive installations + performances + game + website with different devices like joystick and mobile phone”
