Experience digital art with Safran!
Have you just scanned a QR code on the Safran stand at the Farnborough airshow? The magnificent animated artwork now before you is a foretaste of a brand new project that Safran will be unveiling in September.
What’s the idea?
A few months ago, Safran opened up its entire graphic archive to a panel of digital artists from the Artpoint agency, which specializes in data art, generative art, 3D, collage and photogrammetry. The aim was to create artworks inspired by Safran technologies.
Multiple artists delved into this almost inexhaustible resource featuring thousands of photos, and Safran selected a number of the resulting creations, one of which is right before your eyes!
Who is the artist?
Luke Conroy, is a 34 year-old Australian collagist, sociologist and teacher based in the Netherlands. His artistic approach draws on social observation and extensive research in photography, digital art, video, writing and installations. Luke's artworks are inspired by his own interpretations of and interactions with the world.

The Luke Conroy artwork you see here is a surrealist photomontage made up of hundreds of Safran graphic design elements.
The artist talks about it in this video:
So, will you be joining us in September to see the other exhibits created for this project that puts a fresh spin on Safran's graphic design database for today’s high-tech society?
