Patrick Tresset is a contemporary French artist and researcher based in Brussels.
Tresset develops robots and autonomous computational systems to produce series of drawings, paintings and animations the representation of human presence and experience using computational systems, AI, robotics, and traditional media. His works are most often presented in the form of performative theatrical installations that introduce artistic, expressive and obsessive aspects to robots’ behaviour. He has established himself internationally as one of the pioneers of computational creativity, graphics and performative robotic arts. Although he has focused exclusively on his artistic practice for the past decade, his research is referenced in over 300 academic publications, including drawing, psychology, AI, social robotics and computational graphics.
