Mohammed Chrouro is a Moroccan conceptual artist whose work belongs to the post-Internet movement. Founder of the “New Moroccan Aesthetic,” a sub-movement that reinterprets digital codes through a local sensibility, he explores the emotional and aesthetic dimensions of the digital realm.

Between 2008 and 2014, he created websites conceived as autonomous artworks. These platforms, composed mainly of gradients, used the screen itself as an artistic medium, opening a new path in Moroccan digital art. In 2012, he began exhibiting these exclusively digital works, which marked a turning point in his reflection on the emotional language of chromatic transitions.

In 2015, he published the Emotional Gradients manifesto, a poetic text where he developed his vision of the gradient as a trigger for universal emotions and a tool for exploring transitional states. This work, at the intersection of art and philosophy, consolidated his unique approach to digital painting as an affective experience.

From 2016 onwards, Chrouro expanded his research by constructing a “concrete imaginary” where anarchy and order, beauty and horror coexist. Through computer-generated images presented as videos, installations, and digital paintings, he questions the tensions and contradictions of a hyperconnected world, offering a poetic and critical vision of modernity.

In 2023, he created Untitled in response to the earthquake in the Al Haouz region. Presented at the Paris Internationale art fair as part of the charity exhibition-sale Drawing for Morocco, the piece later entered the collection of the Centre Pompidou, confirming his international recognition.

Today, Chrouro continues to explore the potential of digital media, redefining notions of beauty and emotion on screen. Anchored in post-Internet thought, his work offers a visionary reading of the future of contemporary aesthetics.
