About me
Nicolas Michel (aka Milkorva) is a visual and new media artist based in Paris, with a master degree in Contemporary & Digital Art from the Sorbonne. He creates generative and immersive installations, focusing on the ever-changing and unpredictable nature of elements.
His works capture the essence of natural phenomena, digitally reinterpreting them in a quest for dialogue between the figurative and the abstract. The artist employs generative algorithms and advanced simulations to create constantly evolving digital ecosystems. His creations, accompanied by rich, audio-reactive soundscapes, invite introspection and question our relationship with reality.
Exhibited in prestigious venues such as the Grand Palais, the Boston Museum of Science, Sonar Istanbul, and Miami Art Basel, his works offer a contemplative experience that is both personal and universal.
Through ever-evolving works, mirroring the natural forces that inspire him, Milkorva invites the viewer to rethink their perception of the world.
