Janne Schimmel (NL, 1993) is a Dutch artist, who graduated from the Design Academy Eindhoven. His practice is concerned with the inner workings of both hardware and software — which he deconstructs both physically and digitally to expose the frameworks that determine how we think about technology as a society. Within his practice, Schimmel considers the computer as the interface to an alternative reality as experienced in popular RPG’s (role playing games) such as World of Warcraft or The Elder Scrolls series. The design of these games is immersive and detailed; grotto-like landscapes are littered with ritualistic occult objects such as power crystals, jewels, gems, and ancient shrines. Yet in contrary to the esoteric scenery of these virtual realms, the consoles and computers that allow you access to these worlds remain minimalist black or silver boxes made out of metal and plastics. Intrigued by the ornate reality of video games, Janne uses computer hardware to create sculptures and digital works that allow you to connect to your digital self.
