Most of my electronic installations are reference to the physical experience of the virtual world of computing. The hardware side of computers are a source of inspiration. On the other hand graphic (including) web art is for me an alternate way of communicating.
My creative skills are also ventilated in work in assignement ; In the past I have designed several websites, created the PenServer -a pre smartphone concept of portable pocket computing- and developped an on-line voting game.
Being an autodidact at start-up gave me the opportunity to experiment with a variety of skills and media; from noise music up to photography. In 2007 I graduated at the Photoacademy Amsterdam. For recent information see also my current website mathilde.mupe.nl
Quotation Diana Ozon;
"Kunstenares Mathilde muPe ontwerpt en bouwt kunstwerken, electronische instalaties en projecten waarbij futuristische technieken zich aanpassen aan de basisbehoeften van de primaat homosapiens."
Quotation Armin Medosh;
"MuPe experimentiert mit ihren Arbeiten am Quell- Code selbst und entwirft, bei aller technischen Beschlagenheit, sinnliche Gegenentwürfe zu den Computern, so wie wir sie kennen. Ob mit ihrer Web-Site oder mit dem Steinzeit Computer, jedesmal scheint es ihr Ziel zu sein, Sinnlichkeit und Emotion in die Netzwelt zu bringen."
