Alex Raja Ven is an interdisciplinary artist working between ambient, noise, techno, visual art, dance and the avant-garde. Their practice focuses on intersections of technology and identity which they explore through emotive sounds, shapes, textures and performances. In 2023, they presented work alongside Raven Chacon and John Dieterich for Parallel 03, a web instrument that uses mistranslations of sound to produce a continuous feedback loop of generative music. Despite their prolific nature, Alex Raja Ven remains an enigmatic figure in Canada’s artistic landscape. Their work is a temporal anomaly, reflecting a granular approach that continues to challenge and redefine the boundaries of contemporary artmaking practices.
