In this engaging artist talk, Alex Chorny offers an inside look into his process-driven practice, where experimentation, play, and curiosity are essential tools for creation. Moving beyond traditional approaches to art-making, Chorny embraces uncertainty—working with natural forces such as magnetism and gravity to produce outcomes that cannot be fully controlled.
This talk explores the importance of maintaining a sense of play within a disciplined practice, and how curiosity drives innovation across both art and science. Chorny will reflect on the role of failure as a necessary and generative part of the creative process, challenging the expectation of perfection in favour of discovery and growth.
Through insights into his studio methods and conceptual framework, audiences will be invited to reconsider how they approach their own work and ideas—learning to embrace experimentation, remain open to the unexpected, and find value in the process itself.
