Vector vs Raster
Vecxi artworks are created for download using either vector or raster based software. The following is a refresh for both formats. Vector art is digital artwork made from mathematical equations, allowing it to be scaled infinitely without losing quality. All original Vecxi artworks are vector-formatted and created using vector applications. Raster art is digital artwork made from a grid of pixels and is ideal for making photorealistic images and complex paintings within defined dimensions. It uses universally recognized files like JPEG, PNG, and TIFF formatting. At Vecxi, we offer raster artworks as an alternative option (to vector original pieces) for digital prints in open editions.
The Artist
Toron Smith is an artist and designer whose work explores the intersectionality of visual communication, digital design, and physical production. Having grown up in the 90s, Smith considers himself amongst the last generation to experience the convergence of the analog world and the digital present. His work reflects an origin and fondness of pre-internet tactility alongside an adoption of post-internet access. Educated in the communication arts, with a career practiced between design and marketing industries, Toron most recently struck a creative balance between his interpretation of a communal past in relation to a digitally driven future. Specifically, his work of the past decade as an artist who reimagined retro aesthetics into modern memorabilia directly ushered in his current era of reconciliation.posits that this is digital artwork as meant to be consumed, in-between layers of participation.
Smith’s series with Vecxi ultimately surveys the relationship between communication and misinterpretation. He creates a world where the creator relies on the collector, who in turn collaborates with producers in order to complete the artwork. It’s creativity by committee. Intangibly passing the baton along the ideation process until the artwork is received in tangible format. Transparency represents a cycle of work created with the intention of questioning intention and involving many hands along the way. Toron posits that this is digital artwork as meant to be consumed, in-between layers of participation.
