About the artist
I am Steit Slings. Interested in Art, Music, Food, Travel, Life. Ever since I could pronounce the word I wanted to become an architect. Build stuff. Make the world a better place trough architecture. At an age of about 10 years old I bought a Sinclair ZX81 with 16Kb with my brother. The modern fridge has more memory. More memory than the Sinclair, not my brother. My educational journey took me via architecture and art into IT where I’ve spend my time building digital architecture. Build stuff. The love for architecture and art never left. Recently I decided to spend more time doing the things I love the most. Build stuff.
Born in an age where computers and digital media were new and daring. Computers and art combinations were rare. I created installations that were computer operated or on-screen manifestations. Alongside with more traditional forms of art and commercial products. I am still active as an (Interim) CTO/CIO and divide my time between IT and Art, trying to find interesting crossovers.

Artist statement
In my work, I aim to take the viewer on a journey of exploration and discovery, inviting them to experience other places, traditions, ideas, and perspectives. Through this engagement, I hope to highlight both the diversity and the shared humanity that connect us all. By presenting these contrasts and connections, I encourage the viewer to reflect deeply, to think critically, and to appreciate the beauty inherent in the simple, often overlooked aspects of daily life.
A central theme in my creations is “World Communication,” a concept that emphasizes the importance of dialogue and exchange in fostering a better, more connected world. Through communication, we can bridge divides, nurture understanding, and cultivate a collective sense of unity despite our differences. This theme has been present in my work ever since I started making art at the Academy.
I see artists as storytellers, telling their own stories as wel as interpertations and combinations of existing ones.
The materials and media I work with are as varied as the ideas I aim to express. I choose each medium with intention, selecting the one that best aligns with the message or feeling I wish to convey in a particular piece. My creative toolbox is expansive, encompassing photographs as base material, paint on canvas, prints, 3D prints, ceramics, resin, wood, and any combinations of these. This versatility allows me to create works that are both unique and deeply expressive. That said I do have a tendency to create more graphical based works than figurative or abstracts.
Most of my creations are made in series where I take an idea and present it from different angles. Some series are a collection of unikates, others are in small editions. Each piece is infused with the spirit of connection and the belief that through art and communication, we can better understand ourselves and the world around us.
Nothing is possible without support.
My trusty support is Bea Musiol, the person who made possible my exhibitions and collaboration with the Yunus Ymre Institute.
“Standing behind this artist means more than just appreciating his work—it’s about believing in the vision, passion, and creativity that fuel every piece Steit creates. As a traveler I’ve seen many parts of our beautiful planet and in the Virtual Journeys I see places from my past and cities I’d like to visit. As assistant I help spread the vision and ideas.”
