Kenny Vaden
Kenny’s code-based artworks capture the beauty, turbulence, and horror of our times. Experience with other mediums (photography, drawing, and stained glass) provided him with contours for the algorithms he writes, which generate colorful and abstract expressions. His artistic process involves composing new code for each work in the R Statistics Language to set up a “blank canvas”. Kenny iteratively writes code, executes the system, and then views the image results. Each algorithm can generate high-resolution images for fine art prints and NFTs (non-fungible tokens).
Prior to writing algorithm-based art, his art experience included drawing, painting, stained glass apprenticeships, as well as nature photography. His artworks have been selected for the permanent art collection at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) where he is a faculty member (2016), the juried annual art publication MUSC Humanitas (2015, 2016, 2020, 2021, 2022), Courtenay Street Art Gallery (2012), and Piccolo Spoleto Annual Juried Art Exhibition (2012, 2022).
