Nicolas Gebbe is a freelance 3D artist and filmmaker working in Frankfurt am Main / Germany.
Inspired by architecture and everyday spaces he likes to create digital worlds in 3D that catch the eye and find creative visual solutions for challenging ideas. His works are often based on existing spaces that surround us and our habitual movements within them in relationship to the digital reality. Separate aspects of these places and processes are isolated, alienated, combined, distorted. Realms that would otherwise withdraw themselves from our attention, are made visible. Intermediate dimensions are exposed, viewing habits questioned. Everyday environments and imagery are deconstructed and made tangible in a modified form. In confrontation with the digital chaos, one is challenged to reflect their own reality.
Main software he uses is Cinema4D / Redshift / X-Particles in combination with After Effects / Premiere / Photoshop. Furthermore he uses Touchdesigner and Unity for interactive experiences as well as ableton live and max for sounddesign and interactive audiovisual builds.
