Boris Marinin

Austria

Boris Marinin is both an artist and a curator based in Vienna, Austria. His artistic approach is mainly influenced by self-learning and psychoanalytical analysis. In his art, he tries to capture the essence of nature using amorphous shapes, which are not necessarily related to the material world we know. With his analytical art, the artist takes us on a journey where we are exposed to the movement of nature, extinction and opportunities while discovering personal interpretations of the link between an artist and an object in order to show us beyond our dimension.


In his video art, Boris aspires to make the video shooting process non-rational and non narrative, a kind of trance where it is the camera that guides him and not the other way around. He never knows in advance what he’s going to film. His main source of inspiration is French psychoanalysis, mainly the work of Jacques Lacan, but also object-oriented ontology, animism, Black Metal and some artists. The artists who inspire him the most are Ed Atkins, Joseph Beuys or the abstract films of Stan Brakhage.

Osiris - Shrines - Boris Marinin

Osiris_-_Shrines_-_Boris_Marinin_Boris_Marinin_Collage.mp4

This video series begins with intuitive drawing, treated as a spatial impulse. The drawing is translated into an architectural composition and developed as a site. Each site is refined through collage, with elements incrementally introduced and animated within a fixed frame. Transformation unfolds through material interaction, circulation, and internal cycles.

This shrine is dedicated to Osiris, associated with continuity, regeneration, and ordered return. The architecture is organized around a central basin and radial structures that distribute water, light, and growth across the site. Stone surfaces, submerged chambers, and layered terraces establish a system of accumulation and renewal. Circulation follows cycles of descent, immersion, and emergence, producing a place structured by repetition, fertility, and sustained coherence across time.

More on digital art

Generative art
Generative art refers to a way of creating artworks using an autonomous system. In digital art, these are usually generated from code and algorithms created by the artist, often with certain predefined parameters or systems. Although these parameters guide the final outcome of the work, generative art is generally a surprising way to create artworks, as the results are often unexpected and the number of possible outcomes can be infinite.
AI
AI art is a branch of generative art that uses artificial intelligence. Unlike other generative artworks, AI artworks use specific complex algorithms and models derived from machine learning. The most common methods for creating AI art today are GANs (generative adversarial networks) or proprietary prompting platforms such as ChatGPT, Sora, Midjourney, or Dall-e.
3D
3D art uses 3D software such as Blender, Cinema4D, Houdini, or video game software such as Unity to create works of art. In 3D works, artists can either arrange assets (the 'objects' in a 3D artwork or world) that they have created themselves or purchased from other creators to create elaborate environments and scenes (an approach to 3D art called 'set dressing'), or specialize in sculpting, which involves creating their own objects and assets.
Photogrammetry
Photogrammetry is a specialized 3D technique that allows 3D objects to be created from numerous photographs taken of an object or scene from multiple angles. These photos are then compiled to determine the specific positioning, shape, and dimensions of the object in space, and then converted into a 3D model. Initially developed for engineering and urban planning, photogrammetry has become a way for artists to produce extremely accurate 3D models from real-life images.
Collage
An extension of the traditional, plastic approach to collage, digital collage involves searching for and cutting out multiple images, extracting them from their original context, and recomposing them in a new arrangement to create a work of art. Artists can use their own photographs or find images on the internet.
Illustration
Digital illustrations are created using software such as Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, or Procreate. As with drawing on paper, the artist uses a stylus to sketch a figure or object, usually on a tablet, to construct a scene or artistic universe. Unlike traditional drawing methods, digital illustration is much more forgiving, as mistakes can be easily corrected and drawn elements and objects can be easily moved around within a scene.
Video
Video artworks primarily use a recording camera, but may sometimes include additional post-processing or editing to distort, modify or add additional elements to the image. Some artists use state-of-the-art recording equipment to create macro zoom-ins or time lapses, privileging fidelity to the subject matter. Others use additional softwares to significantly modify or warp the video, creating an alternative perspective on the world that surrounds us.
