Marterium

3D
Meditative
Abstract

Folds of iridescent fabric in shifting greens, golds, and soft blues stretch and dissolve into one another, hovering between liquid silk and polished metal. This 3D animation moves with a quiet, continuous fluidity, never settling into a fixed shape. The forms swell, fold, and re-form in an endless, non-repeating cycle. The work invites a slow, almost tactile contemplation of light as it travels across surfaces that seem both weightless and richly material.

Marterium

Germany

Markus Kanzler, known by his artistic pseudonym Marterium, is a German artist whose passion lies in exploring form and color, which he considers to be languages in their own right. His artistic journey centers on capturing abstract concepts and translating them into captivating compositions. The artist views digital art as a collaborative endeavor between man and machine, acknowledging the ever-evolving tools that facilitate his creative process. Over the years, the evolution of digital art tools has sparked genuine enthusiasm in him. He eagerly awaits updates that enhance the brushes available to digital artists. His primary tools for creating Marterium’s mesmerizing works include Cinema 4D, Houdini, and Photoshop. In addition, he uses After Effects and plugins such as Octane/Redshift and X-Particles to expand his creative possibilities. Before diving into 3D art, Markus Kanzler studied psychology. However, he never felt called to pursue a career as a traditional therapist. In 2019, he founded Marterium, then ventured into the world of cryptoart in 2020.

Since then, he has worked for clients such as Apple, Zedd, and PayPal, placing great importance on evoking emotions and raising public awareness through his art.

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 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 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.
