Mark IJzerman

Flounder Maps

Mark IJzerman is an interdisciplinary artist who investigates ecological themes through the use of technology. His work gives voice to the more-than-human world, exploring planetary processes such as eroding biodiversity and the impacts of climate change on water systems. Through installations and audiovisual performances, IJzerman blends fieldwork, artistic research, and collaboration with experts from diverse scientific fields, including biology, astronomy, and ecology. His practice incorporates living organisms, custom-built software, and film, creating dialogues that challenge the boundaries between technology and ecology. Influenced by speculative fiction, IJzerman examines the tensions between technological advancement and environmental degradation. At Rewire 2026, he performs his album Flounder Maps (2025) live, a bristling work that toys with scale, panning from vast, all-engulfing synthscapes into subtle and close ecosystems of sound.
