Meet the Artist
Bio
Noah Clemens is a 23 year old, Texas based designer, who has dabbled in nearly every art medium once, but currently focuses on fabrication and digital media. He uses programs such as Rhino 7 and Illustrator to create models and designs that then get made into reality via 3D printers, CNC Mills, and Laser Cutters. While varying wildly between tones, mediums, and processes, the common through line for Noah’s work is visual story telling. Each piece is designed to encourage the viewer to imagine a time or place the work may have originally existed, or been based in. As of 2021, he is currently working on his BFA in studio art thesis at Texas State University.
Artist Statement
My name is Noah Clemens and I make digital art come to life. Through programs such as Rhino 7, Photoshop, and Aspire, I take digital works and transform them into physical objects with the help of fabrication equipment. I’m fascinated by the technology of 3D printers, CNC Mills, Laser Cutters, etc., and the idea of employing theme in interesting ways to create art for the sake of the art itself. In that regard, my work could be considered similar in theme to that of Oscar Wilde, champion of the art for art’s sake movement. But it stands apart from him because I don’t make my work in order to directly oppose the idea of art for an agendar, but rather because I believe art for an agenda is simply boring. I believe it is much more interesting if the artwork can tell a story through visuals alone. I want the viewer to imagine a world in which each piece might have originally existed but was plucked from and brought into ours for display. Because at the end of the day, political movements come and go. But stories are what last forever.
