Unexhibited, undiscussed and uncelebrated since their inception, Fudge's datasets (1994-) are a testament to risk-taking in the pursuit of innovation in art, and to an artist unafraid to risk failure in the pursuit of new modes of expression.

Fudge's digital works are a bold, unestablished, unknown and yet groundbreaking body of work. Like a mesmerizing cascade of vibrant color, the data files are assigned a name and a designated directory, with a riotous logic that preserves the files in their bold and shimmering hues. 

In each digital file, Fudge lavishes meticulous attention to the construction of the image, carefully manipulating Adobe vectors or pixels with a virtuosic skill. Often using tool and panel functions to generate 'computational chance operations', Fudge explores the interplay of alignment, movement, distribution and expansion, orchestrating a riotous symphony of controlled randomization that iteratively transforms the image. Much like an AB EX stained canvas, Fudge's digital oeuvre is distributed across thematic folders, that, in infinite recursion, iteration and regression, seep into the very fabric of the macOS HFS, weaving an ever more intricate organological tapestry of expandable datasets.
