I've always been frustrated by artists who blindly defend traditional art and call digital art amateurish. They believe that a true artist must spend years mastering anatomy, light, shadow, and color theory instead of creating it with just a few clicks in graphic software. On the other hand, some digital art advocates claim to be the future of art, ignoring past achievements. I prefer to take the best from both worlds and create art in both worlds.

The Evolution of Art
Art has always reflected the spirit of its time. From ancient sculptures to modern digital masterpieces, artists have continually adapted and found new ways to express themselves. Digital art has revolutionized the art world, but can pixels truly match the warmth or coldness of a physical object? Physical art has a unique charm - the ability to touch, feel, and experience it in person. Imagine walking through an installation where projections react to your movements, or a sculpture that changes its appearance in real-time. Isn’t that more captivating than staring at a static image on a screen?

My Journey with Phygital Art
In my work, I explore phygital art's potential through various projects. For example, my installation "Integral Form v1.0" combines traditional craftsmanship with modern technology. I used the Japanese technique of kintsugi to restore a 3D-printed vase and projected real-time animations onto it, creating a piece with multiple layers of perception: visual, textural, and symbolic.

The Art Must Go On
In a world where technology touches every part of life, art cannot remain on the sidelines. Artists and viewers no longer want to be limited to paintings, sculptures, or digital images. They want to explore the possibilities of both the real and digital worlds. As technology advances, the potential for phygital art becomes limitless, promising an exciting future for the art world.
