Techspressionism: New Visual Languages · Mémoire de l’Avenir, Paris · Curated by Margalit Berriet, co-curated by Helen Margaret Giovanello
Moritz Albrecht
Frankfurt, Germany 
Moritz Albrecht is a physician, radiological scientist and multidisciplinary artist whose practice moves between digital art, abstract painting and sculptural reliefs. Drawing on his experience in medical imaging, he works with X-ray, CT and MRI data, taking these images out of their diagnostic context and transforming them through elaborate digital post-processing into new aesthetic spaces. Alongside this digital work, he creates abstract paintings and relief-like works that explore pattern, texture, materiality and chance. His practice brings together technical precision and experimental freedom, carrying methods from medicine and science into a distinctly different visual context.
Colin Goldberg
North Bennington, Vermont, USA
Colin Goldberg is an American artist whose work explores the intersection of painting, digital drawing and emerging technologies. He studied painting under Abstract Expressionist Angelo Ippolito at Binghamton University and received an MFA in Computer Art from Bowling Green State University. His grandmother, Kimiye Ebisu, was a calligrapher who taught shodō in Hawaii and Japan, an influence reflected in his use of line and gesture. Goldberg coined the term Techspressionism in 2011. A recipient of grants from the Pollock-Krasner Foundation and the New York State Council on the Arts, he has been featured on PBS, NPR and WIRED. He lives and works in North Bennington, Vermont.
Renata Janiszewska
Lion’s Head, Canada
Renata Janiszewska paints on electronic canvas. Working across disciplines, she creates both digital and analog works, breathing life into still images and composing the ethereal music that surrounds them. She builds her own tools: her custom brushes, like the images themselves, are all of her own invention, and her paintings become the mise en scène of her moving-image works. As a moderator, she connects scholarly inquiry to studio practice, and she organizes salons and exhibitions. At The Dreamer’s Lair Studios she recently completed Artless / Sans art, sans fard, a book of her artworks.
Tikoi Kuitenbrouwer
De Bilt, Netherlands
Tikoi Kuitenbrouwer is a Dutch multidisciplinary artist exploring the intimate relationship between humans and the natural world. Working with photography, digital manipulation, sculpture and physical fabrication, he creates hybrid images and objects in which human figures, animals and natural forms become intertwined. His work challenges the idea that nature is something separate from us, reflecting a simple but fundamental truth: we are nature. Moving between analogue and digital processes, Kuitenbrouwer uses technology not as an escape from the natural world, but as a means to reveal hidden connections within it, exploring symbiosis, transformation and our place within a larger living system.
Tommy Mintz
NYC, New York, USA
Tommy Mintz is a New York artist, curator and educator, and Associate Professor of Photography at CUNY Kingsborough Community College. His work engages construction, displacement and preservation in the physical and digital worlds. Since 2013 he has developed the Automated Digital Photo Collage, software that compares images for areas of difference to build time-lapse collages, which he presents as prints on fabric and metal. His work has been shown at Hudson Guild Gallery, Buckham Gallery in Flint and PUCCS Gallery in Budapest. He organized, curated and installed Techspressionism exhibitions in Brooklyn (2024) and Chelsea (2025), and was architect and technical lead of Cyberiana, the community’s shared VR environment.
Philippe Ormières
Sète, France
Born in Sète, France, Philippe Ormières draws much of his inspiration from his hometown, its landscapes and its surroundings. At fifteen he discovered film photography in the laboratory of the biological station where his father worked, a formative experience that shaped his path. Over the years he has developed a personal practice combining photography, image transformation and graphic creation, enriched by his travels. Describing himself as a “photographiste” (a blend of photographer and graphic designer), he reworks and recomposes his images to go beyond simple representation, at the boundary between photography and the imaginary. A founding member of Techspressionism in France, he pursues an artistic path in constant evolution.

Lee Day has worked across a range of creative fields, including photojournalism, stock photography, interactive media, web design and creative writing. Returning now to his first love, photography, he explores how far he can push the algorithms of the digital image. Work from his ongoing series Clipping Suburbia – Japan has been shown at ArtStation in Samarkand, the Contemporary Art Museum of Uzbekistan in Urgench, BBA Gallery in Berlin, Soho Photo Gallery in New York and Southampton Arts Center. The series won a 2021 Critics’ Choice Award from LensCulture, appeared in Exposure 2021 at Photographic Resource Center and was featured in BETA Experiments in Photography.

Annette Weintraub
NYC, New York, USA 
Annette Weintraub investigates architecture as visual language, the dynamics of urban space and the resonance of everyday objects. Her work is concerned with sense of place and how the ordinary things around us create an emotionally charged artificial landscape of ephemera; recent work includes animated and print panoramas and virtual still life images. Her work has been shown at the Whitney Biennial, the International Center of Photography, International Film Festival Rotterdam, Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes in Buenos Aires, SIGGRAPH and ISEA. She was one of eight artists chosen for New York City’s City Canvas public art program, and is Professor Emerita of Art at the City College of New York.
Michael Woodruff
London, UK
Michael Woodruff is a London-based multidisciplinary digital artist whose practice spans fine art, moving image and visual design. Working across digital media for more than two decades, he has built a career encompassing film, television, documentary and advertising alongside an evolving independent art practice. His work explores nostalgia, memory, media technology and the relationship between analogue imperfection and digital systems, combining found and archival imagery with scanned marks, texture, colour, noise and digitally constructed processes. Informed by the physicality and spontaneity of Abstract Expressionism, he uses digital space to explore tensions between intention and accident, control and intuition.
