Ommery De Zutter creates digital worlds that exist in the space between the real and the infinite.
Working from Belgium, De Zutter builds architectures that shouldn’t exist; cathedrals that fold into themselves, structures that breathe, spaces where gravity becomes negotiable. These aren’t fantasies but inquiries: what happens when our oldest symbols, temples, monuments, and the human form, are rebuilt in a medium with no physical constraints?
The work lives in deliberate tension. Classical iconography rendered in impossible geometries. Religious imagery refracted through digital logic. Familiar forms that become strange when freed from the laws of matter. Each piece asks you to locate yourself in a landscape where “real” and “rendered” have become meaningless distinctions.
De Zutter is drawn to infinity as experience. The vertiginous feeling of standing before something that exceeds comprehension. The work doesn’t depict infinity so much as construct environments where you can feel its presence: corridors that recede beyond rendering distance, patterns that multiply past counting, light sources that illuminate nothing and everything.
This is art for the moment in which we’re losing our grip on physical reality, when the digital increasingly feels more vivid, more consequent, more emotionally resonant than what we can touch. De Zutter doesn’t celebrate or mourn this shift but makes it visible and creates spaces where you can examine what’s being gained and lost as our world migrates into code.
The work invites disorientation. Step inside these new spaces and you might find devotion, decay, transcendence, or just the uncanny pleasure of seeing stone behave like liquid, light act like matter, architecture achieve what stone and steel never could.
