Once We Were Wild

In a world that moves too fast, and of minds with no sense of slowing, Once We Were Wild is a bridge to who we were and what we will become.
In a fusion of classical photography and digital manipulation, this limited edition series by Daniel Jaems takes inspirational notes from Yuval Noah Harari’s Sapiens and Homo Deus that depicted a fingerprint mutated into a circuit board. Daniel Jaems redefines the human form through intricate geometric abstraction. These digital composites transform raw imagery into mesmerising landscapes of linear precision and flowing patterns, exploring the interplay of structure and chaos.

Each piece is a meticulous balance of art and algorithm, where the contours of the body dissolve into hypnotic waves and fluid grids. These compositions celebrate the beauty of symmetry while challenging perceptions of identity and space. The result is an artistic dialogue between the organic and the digital, the tangible and the abstract.
