Artwork location: France

Storyboard Cathedral ASCII is a representation of the Cathedral Notre-Dame de Reims, a place of worship which housed the sacrament of the majority of the kings of France.
Its historical dimension, the religious and spiritual origin of the building, but above all its architecture, prompted Darokin to make it the subject of one of his creations. The divine and elegant proportions of the building have always challenged the artist, fascinated by the geometry of Platonic solids. He makes here the connection between the structure of the holy place and the 5 convex and regular polyhedra whose mathematical and aesthetic properties are well established.
To create this work, the Reims artist Darokin was directly inspired by his second creation in the image of the religious building, Storyboard Cathedral Origami. It is from the latter that he was able to revisit the rotation of the cathedral in ASCII art (virtual illustrations established from computer characters).

Darokin, Notre Dame de Reims - ASCII
France  • 1982

Presentation

Adrien Rebuzzi, aka Darokin, (Reims) was born in 1982, at a time when screens and computers were becoming increasingly ubiquitous in the daily lives of the future millennials of his generation.

Darokin defines himself as an "underground" programmer and computer artist. 

A programmer since childhood, Darokin uses 3D, creative coding and ASCII art, and defines himself as an "underground" computer artist.

His love of mathematics, geometry and the sacred shines through in his creations, whose universe is often imbued with an immutable immateriality evoked by computer imagery. Some of his creations come from universes relating to a bygone, fantasized era, as if to contain the passage of time. His color-blindness leads him to use a reduced color palette, a vestige of the display mode of his first IBM PS/1, which satisfies him visually: black and white contrasts and bright colors from saturated yellow, cyan and pink ranges. Through this unprecedented prism, the viewer travels back in time to the artist's childhood. 

Darokin reflects his thirst for life and his optimism in the new chapters still opening up between man and machine. More than a leap in time, it's a step towards resolving our metaphysical complexes, where scientific curiosity and poetry have never been so close and transcendent.
