Sculptor Douglas Tausik Ryder is an American artist whose organic, sensual style is a tension between geometry and nature. He responds to the digital age with conceptual, digital, and analog practices. Tausik Ryder’s technology-assisted art making delivers expressive, crafted sculptures. His sculptures are CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machined after a series of creative interventions, then painstakingly assembled and hand-finished. His trial and error methods push against digital and industrial limitations informed by his decades of exploration in this area. He ignites a dialogue about what art is now and what it will be in the future. www.douglastausikryder.com
