We hail David Vineïs from Paris, France.

Seeing his work in renowned magazine for digital art, it was a matter of minutes til we bundled up clumsy e-mail to contact him. While waiting for David’s reply, we took time to browse through his work. Our wish and desire to present his opus to Electromedans solidified. Interesting motto greeted us upon entering his studio. So first question logically was:

Futuristik, organik, mechanik, electronik, onirik?

"I like to mix elements to render atmospheric feelings. The 'K' is important letter for me. Futuristik, because I like hi-tech layout and to imagine different future, not only designed, but atmospheric and “mental based life” (Onirik). Mechanik, electronik and organik because mix of these different sources and elements is very interesting, it is so pradoxal”.

And that approach is clearly visible in his work. Through four periods, David Vineïs developed his style gradually. ‘Period 1’ was search for ‘his own feeling’. Followed by darkest compositions, concept of ‘old atmospheres with human body parts’ is a signature of second period. Then comes period three : "the most “mental” for me. Based on emotions and feelings, this period was really creative.'Period 4' (current period) is the most futuristic. I use new 3D elements with more perspective elements. Really psychedelic and 'cyber'. I like to create most abstract feeling".

On question about influences and inspirations, David replied: “Cinema, music, art and ..... women I love <smile>…). In cinema, directors like David Lynch , Tim Burton , David Cronenberg . Painting - HR Giger is my master (for me, he is the creator of “bio-mechanical”).Very important, I need music to create. It takes really significant place in my inspiration (ambient, electronica: Boards of Canada, Autechre, Bjork, Gus Gus, Massive Attack, FSOL…) Sometimes I like to try to imagine and create picture about music I listen. I hate silence when I work. (CONTINUES HERE)
