Nicole Beno is an Ontario-based artist and designer fascinated with technology and its relationship to the natural world. Known for her inventive use of materials ranging from orchid petals, jello, and office supplies to mouldy strawberries, she employs them to emphasize their aesthetic qualities. Through the process of digital manipulation, she distorts, cuts, and collages them into something new. Her image-making style blends digital and analog, a remix of the computer and the hand.
