The digital creators known as The Internet Office produce 3D models of abstract and amorph sculptures that drag the viewer in with curiosity. The artworks of the artist duo resemble a mix of man-made and biological with the obscurity of the unnatural.
The Internet Office is interested in exploring the mix and the relationship between organic and technologic. Thinking of the human body, a biological being that is wired like a machine, functioning with chemically transmitted electronic signals, the duo is attracted to this connection and means to compose artworks that establish dialogues within this context.
Ignacio (Iñaki) Claisse and Francisca Tambasco (from Buenos Aires, Argentina) formed The Internet Office sometime in early May 2020. What had started as a project duo to enter a contest in France resulted in an up-and-coming creative entity. Their video work that got its place in the virtual exhibition of that Parisian gallery helped them realise that it was possible to progress with their artistic practice.
The first works of the duo were purely experimental. Putting out a vast number of projects instinctually generated these sessions of analysing and reflecting, which resulted in more projects, until they reached outcomes that they were satisfied with. The ongoing pandemic was an influential factor in their creations, as they were inevitably affected by it. Hence the sudden turn of events steered them in the direction of being dependent on computers and the relationship between a biological unknown and digitalisation.
The name of the duo comes from the pandemic reality as well. As all the artworks were done in their home offices through the internet and the computers that they had during that time, the duo found the name “The Internet Office” fit to their then situation. Another element that shaped their practice was the limits of their sources and as a consequence the limitation that their equipment brought framed the depths and aesthetics of their projects.
A significant aspect of The Internet Office’s artworks is the theatrical sense that each visual gives. The artist duo creates a scene for each piece, where a figure is the sole character. The lighting that is used enhances certain points of the virtual body and guides in identifying the movements on the body through shadows. Their choice of composing still images is still ongoing, however, why they chose to work with still images in the first place might again be related to the technological restraints that they had to comply with.
The Internet Office started with Cinema 4D to generate their works with Claisse’s programming background. Coming across another program called Side FX: Houdini while watching online tutorials, they realised its procedural aspect related more to their needs. Since they usually do not have a sketch of what they want to do, they prefer using modelling programs that allow a more randomised relationship. To render their projects, they use Redshift and do not apply any post-production.
