Biography
Based in Paris, William Mapan (b.1988) is a pioneer in the digital art space. With a background in software development, he combines computer science with his passion for pigment, light and texture. One of Mapan’s most notable works is his Dragons series (2021), in which he shared a portion of the works’ ownership with his collectors during the process of creation. He often combines contrasting ideas which juxtapose one another. In Dragons, he highlighted the symbolism of the mythical beast that represents wisdom in China, but is often associated with destruction and decay in Western culture.
Frequently alternating between different mediums, Mapan relies on creativity, chance and the exact shades of lightness within each of the works. In the Anticyclone series, he capitalised on the contrasts between dark and light to produce works focused on the erratic patterns of weather phenomena. Notably, Mapan codes, creates, and teaches at Gobelins, l’école de l’image in Paris.
