A conversation with haydenclay

Hayden is a visual artist currently living in Maryland. He uses 3D art to explore a variety of surreal ideas, with a particular interest in blurring the line between dreams and reality. His work often draws from natural elements, such as water, clouds, and grass, in order to create dreamlike environments that feel both familiar and otherworldly. His work has been exhibited internationally in Belgium, Beijing, Spain, Paris, and more. His largest show to date, "Nowhere Now Here" took place in Seoul, Korea, where audiences enjoyed an innovative mixture of physical and digital artworks. Hayden is known for such series as World Underwater, Swimwear, Strange Clouds, and The Suburbs

In the Labyrinth of Choice: Art as Inner Geography in the Work of Khwampa

Some artists operate through synthesis, reduction, and order, while others move like explorers of multiplicity, disorder, and excess. Khwampa belongs to this second lineage of creative spirits, yet with a distinctiveness that sets him radically apart within the landscape of contemporary digital art. His is a poetics of organized chaos, a grammar of imagination manifested through the construction of hyperdense, labyrinthine visual worlds that, paradoxically, maintain an unexpected coherence.
