PARAFERAL is a creative research entity operating in the intersection of art, consciousness and technology.

PARAFERAL art productions are of experimental and underground nature; varying from gallery exhibitions to immersive audiovisual works to collectible art objects in small editions.

PARAFERAL also contributes to special projects in the fields of contemporary art, audiovisual design and communications, and related subject matters.

Additionally, PARAFERAL maintains an archive for art and media related to its founder’s work spanning 30+ years.

In the age of instant gratification, constant availability and infinite replicability, PARAFERAL favors qualities like uniqueness and rarity, ambiguity and complexity, alienation and obscurity — essentially for their inherent value.

PARAFERAL stands on the outside looking further out.
