Tiago Charters is an experimental artist who uses algorithms to create physical artworks. He explores the embodiment of the drawing algorithms through machine driven processes and automated devices. He explores the relationship between what exactly is described in an algorithm and the unpredictability of its physical implementation by the use of a machine.

Best known for his mark-making lines that mimic the process of hand drawing and his post-impressionist drawings with a BIC ballpoint pen. He also paints with a machine.

PhD in Mathematical Physics.

Abstraction is rooted in our human visual feedback system.
