ABOUT
C4RDINAL (b. 1990) is a multidisciplinary artist whose work is deeply rooted in nature, culture, and the exploration of tension, truth, and the institutionalization of the world. Working primarily in glitch art, he uses subtle interpretations of the medium to create layered meanings and thought-provoking pieces. His work reimagines familiar, everyday subjects—imbuing them with tension, movement, and light—while dancing pixels add an element of distortion that challenges perceptions and encourages deeper reflection.
Influenced by modern-day culture and historical masters like Clyfford Still, Robert Rauschenberg, Rembrandt, and Raphael, C4RDINAL draws inspiration from the complexities of power, faith, and chaos in the world. His art often explores the precarious balance between control and surrender, examining the fragility of systems we trust to make sense of life. Whether through nature, religion, or societal structures, his works provoke questions about the unseen forces that shape and disrupt our reality.
C4RDINAL’s work has been exhibited internationally, including notable showings at Sotheby’s New York, SuperRare Gallery, Ninfa Gallery (Milan & Ibiza), and Aeon Studios and Art Innovation Gallery (Seoul). Glitch art remains his medium of choice as he continues to push the boundaries of consciousness, documenting the evolving relationship between personal discovery and the broader human experience.
