Daniel Vlček is a painter and musician whose work merges sound with visual expression, exploring how the digital age reshapes our understanding of both. Rooted in the tradition of Czech geometrical abstraction of the 1960s and 70s, Vlček’s art treats painting as a transposition of musical principles, expressed through intricate geometric structures, circular motifs, and hypnotic patterns reminiscent of optical moiré effects. These visual elements serve as analogs to binaural beats, immersing viewers in a light trance where sight becomes a channel for mental stimulation.

A central theme in Vlček’s practice is uncovering the hidden connections between industry and nature, technology and biology. Recently, his focus has turned to natural ecosystems, particularly the networks of mycelium and microorganisms, exploring their profound ecological and planetary significance. Drawing from the aesthetics of scientific and technical illustrations, his works challenge conventional perceptions of both art and science.

Vlček’s creations transcend traditional painting, evolving into technospiritual artifacts that resonate with contemporary ecological thought. Often accompanied by sound installations and original audio compositions rooted in field recordings, his works create a multisensory experience where visual and auditory stimuli intertwine. Through this synthesis, Vlček offers a transformative exploration of the symbiosis between humanity, nature, and technology, inviting us to engage with the unseen forces that shape our world.
