Nick Verstand - contemporary artist
Nick Verstand is featured in our in-depth interview together with Salvador Breed. You can watch the 4 video’s in our magazine “Music & Interactive Sound Art”
Nick Verstand is a contemporary artist researching human perception through spatial audiovisual compositions. His autonomous installations and live performances investigate the frontier between the material and the immaterial, and are created through collaborative design processes aimed at breaking down social boundaries. The resulting intuitive experiences, co-creations of artist and audience, generate a hypnotizing environment for the subconscious mind.
