Artist Statement:
Titus Hora studied Printmaking
at the Ontario College of Art

culture, (“The Matrix”,
“Terminator”, “The Age of
Spiritual Machines”), Hora
writes his own software to

simultaneity and dislocation,
resulting in unexpected,
visually surprising, deeply
layered, rich and sensuous
images.
Using aleatory search
techniques to explore the
field of possible images,
Hora’s software generates
shapes, textures and
compositions that undergo a
process of aesthetic selection
before being added,
subtracted, multiplied and
overlaid to create background,
foreground and “noise”
elements. Each final image is
the result of a unique
combination and balanced
merging of these three
components.
Due to their procedural origin
the compositions are free from
dimensional constraints: the
larger the renderings, the
more depth and detail is
revealed, without artifacts
(pixelation).
Resonating with Jackson
Pollock’s reliance on ...
