STOnéhány

STOnéhány is a digital artwork created by the artist István Erőss, also known by his pseudonym "STONÉHANY". The work is characterized by its exploration of themes related to memory, identity, and the ephemeral nature of digital existence. Erőss frequently utilizes found digital elements, such as fragmented code, corrupted image files, and disused data, as the raw material for his creations. STOnéhány, in particular, often manifests as a series of evolving digital compositions that are not static but rather change and transform over time, reflecting the dynamic and often unstable environment of the internet.

The artistic process behind STOnéhány involves a meticulous yet often serendipitous approach. Erőss delves into digital archives and online detritus, seeking out overlooked or discarded information. These elements are then recontextualized and assembled, creating new narratives or abstract visual experiences. The aesthetic often features a blend of glitch art, pixelation, and a sense of digital decay, inviting viewers to contemplate the remnants of our increasingly digital lives and the data that shapes our perceptions. The artist's work prompts questions about authenticity, originality, and the potential for beauty in what might otherwise be considered digital waste. STOnéhány can be seen as a commentary on the persistence and impermanence of information in the digital age.
