JAMES PATERSON

Fascinated by the relationship between ancient and futuristic mediums, James Paterson (b. 1980, London, England) has been exploring a unique synthesis of drawing, code, animation, and sculpture under the moniker ‘Presstube’ since 1999. Paterson draws inspiration from meditation, molecular biology, music, parenting, and psychedelics—the seen, the heard, the felt, and the cognized.

His solo and collaborative works have been exhibited at the Design Museum in London, London’s Institute of Contemporary Arts, bitforms NYC, the Centre Pompidou in Paris, the Museum of Contemporary Arts in Taipei, the Seoul Metropolitan Museum of Art, and many more.

Paterson lives in Montreal with his two young sons.
