About

“Art is the Signature of our Species.”
"Michael Saup’s work focuses on the underlying forces of nature and society; an ongoing research project into what he calls the “Archaeology of Future”. His research focus in recent years has been on investigating society’s need for energy.
He is a recognized visual artist, filmmaker and musician. During the 1990s he developed a reputation as one of the most innovative protagonists of digital art. His work, often in cooperation with other artists, has been shown widely in exhibitions, festivals and on stages around the world. He currently lives and works in Berlin."
