Nora Papp (CH), born 1975 in Zürich, lives and works in Amsterdam (NL).

 

Nora Papp combines her interest in human perception and the historical development of photography with her investigation of the image as an object. She develops her works with the help of common image processing programmes on the computer. Where she collects „aesthetic data“ through the dissection of the digital image.

 

She realises pictures solely on the basis of the collected “aesthetic data” that consists of the scientifically listed decisions on how to apply the appropriated application. Through this generative process, abstract images emerge whose references in turn provide identities to create new images.

Perception and Image reality

The visual perception of the image and how it determines the reality of the image as an object; Thesis 2018 for the the degree bachelor of the University of Fine Arts and Design Gerrit Rietveld

 

The thesis explores the visual experience of an image; a topic which is becoming increasingly relevant considering culture today. Not only is the processing of digital images constantly developing, so is our perception of that new imagery. My thesis reflects upon such questions more deeply by bringing together newer theories of perception and philosophy, in order to gain a better understanding of how an image is perceived and reality determined within today’s society.
