It was during his computer science studies when he discovered his artistic interests. Since then, his interest in visual design grew as he began experimenting with different media and methods. He worked as a creative director in the Swiss and international design industry for well-known companies in the fields of technology, fashion and luxury. In the 90s, his visual language was a part of a subculture that influenced the underground scene and Swiss design of the time. Later he was a co-founder for several art and design collectives, which are still active today and graduated in design technology from the Zurich University of the Arts. As technology advanced into the digital age, the type of visual work he was making changed and expanded his artistic possibilities. He became fascinated to create something new, art that explored these different techniques. Digital art moved more and more into his focus. He wanted to express something bigger in his work, to take a critical look at the interrelationship between humans and technology. Using data collection, machine learning techniques and algorithms, He generates images and videos in a constant state of metamorphosis. Nero is an artist who invites the viewer to see the world through the eyes of a machine. He is interested in how consciousness evolves in digital space and affects daily life. His work focuses on ideas of perception and transformation through Artificial Intelligence, exploring the reciprocal relationship between humans and technology and creating works that mediate between a real and an abstract world, seemingly threading logical patterns in the midst of randomness and chance.
