Shinji Toya (he/him) is a digital artist based in London. His practice is based on digital image-making and operates as critical generative art. Shinji’s practice often incorporates diverse methods such as video, image manipulation, web programming, artificial intelligence (computer vision), participation, and painting. His recent projects focus on mobilising the notion of decay to make visible the materiality of digital technology and the environmental degradation it induces. He has presented his art projects at The V&A South Kensington, Ars Electronica, Tate Britain, Royal Academy of Arts (UK), arebyte Gallery, Watermans and Fotomuseum Winterthur. In 2023, he was awarded Arts Council England’s Developing Your Creative Practice grant. He is an Associate Lecturer on MA Art and Science, Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design, and a Fellow of Advance HE.
