Asprey Studio is thrilled to announce its participation in @artbasel Basel 2026, taking place from 16–21 June in Switzerland. Following successful presentations in Miami Beach and Hong Kong, Asprey Studio will present a major solo project by generative artist, musician, engineer, programmer, and blacksmith @_deafbeef (b.1981), exhibiting at Booth Z3 in Zero 10, the section dedicated to art of the digital era. Bringing together generative digital works and handcrafted sculptures, the presentation explores the relationship between technology, materiality, sound, and contemporary craftsmanship. The physical dimension of 0xDEAFBEEF’s practice resonates with Asprey Studio’s longstanding expertise in precious metal craftsmanship. The sculptural forged iron works reflect a commitment to traditional handcraft while engaging with advanced digital technologies. This dialogue between material and immaterial processes defines the Studio’s approach to contemporary art-making, realised at its atelier in Kent, where silversmiths, goldsmiths, sculptors, and digital animators work side by side. Known for merging programming, engineering, music, and blacksmithing, 0xDEAFBEEF creates works that draw connections between early experimental image-making and contemporary generative systems.
