Syntax at the ArtEZ Finals

Shindar graduates from the Fine Art and Design in Education department with his work Kurd Shepherd. The following scenes are based on memories and moments of how I felt before my journey to the Netherlands took place. The images and actions are frozen in time, so I had to convert the memories into a compositional language that I processed in my own way. “We humans will never forget something that we felt inside when we saw and experienced an event that happened and changed our lives.” He is interviewed by performance, sculpture and installation artist Melanie Maria.

Sjoerd graduates from Design Art Technology with Digital Specimens (2016 - ongoing), an installation that contains 83 of the most diverse sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic rocks. Every rock, or ‘asset’ as digital artists call them, is embedded within one physical object, emphasising the uniqueness of a specimen that was translated from the physical to the digital realm. Sjef is an artist who, in his work, interprets online culture and dismantles digital interfaces. He is one of the co-founders of Syntax.
