Speculative fictions that exaggerate the present to craft provocative visions of the future.

 

Rick Farin is a digital artist whose work spans cinematic world-building, VR, interactivity, electronic music, and filmmaking. Rooted in the use of game engines and digital design tools, Farin’s practice explores the intersections of technology, culture, and critical storytelling, pushing boundaries in both medium and message.

Together with his partner Claire Farin, he co-founded Actual Objects, a creative studio blending live action, CG, AI, and VFX to construct radical narratives for artists and musicians including Yves Tumor, Eartheater, Bad Bunny, Charli XCX, Hood By Air, Caroline Polachek, VTSS, Sega Bodega, and A.G. Cook. Recently recognized on the Dazed 100 for their groundbreaking contributions, the duo debuted their first gallery installation »Vicky« in collaboration with Case Miller at London’s 180 The Strand.
