ALICIA FELBERBAUM

I am a multidisciplinary artist and designer based in London, with an MFA from Goldsmiths, University of London (1994). My practice has developed over several decades, beginning with a focus on video art and gradually expanding into digital design, material experimentation, and contemporary jewellery. This cross-disciplinary approach continues to inform my work today.

My work seeks to blur the lines between art and design, craft and code, and explore how contemporary tools can convey the weight of personal history and gesture.

Rooted in a lifelong engagement with drawing, my current body of work explores the convergence of analogue mark-making and digital processes. I create limited edition digital prints that investigate visual rhythm, materiality, and spatial tension. Inspired in part by David Hockney’s early adoption of digital tools in his 2011 Royal Academy exhibition, I began exploring how technology could be used not as a replacement for traditional methods, but as an extension of the artist’s hand.

My recent works depict abstract forms that appear to float or drift—suggesting weightlessness, transience, and suspended motion. Influenced by water, sound, and natural cycles, these compositions layer digital brushstrokes, scanned textures, and graphic marks to create a sense of movement and stillness.

I am particularly interested in the way proximity, distance, and small visual "errors" can generate tension between elements, prompting a quiet dialogue between control and unpredictability. This attention to process is fundamental to my practice: each work involves iterations that combine digital precision with tactile, hand-drawn sensitivity.
