Julián Brangold's work explores the visual and symbolic structures that emerge from contemporary internet culture and the broader technological complex. Moving across digital image making and AI assisted processes, painting and print, video, sound design and installation, his practice examines how online aesthetics shape perception, memory, and the ways images circulate and accumulate meaning. Brangold often works through remixing and iteration, drawing from memetics and obscure internet niches, viral phenomena, and the flow of the digital feed. His projects investigate how images mutate as they move through networks, how context erodes online, and how new forms of significance appear through the friction between understanding and ambiguity. Brangold’s work has been presented in exhibitions in Argentina and internationally, reflecting an ongoing interest in the shifting relationship between technology, visual culture, and the construction of concensus.

SELECTED PROJECTS
Trauma Clickbait

A large-scale exhibition mapping the online feed’s unstable visual world, where images outrun meaning, desire merges with doomscrolling, and trauma becomes both lure and currency, through oil paintings, sculpture, and a cinematic loop.


See more... The Angels of History

A series of five UV-printed metal-and-acrylic portraits that reinterpret Benjamin’s “angel of history” as a viral online symbol shaped by repetition, fad culture, and the accelerated churn of contemporary digital discourse, first shown at UVNT Madrid in 2024.


See more... Dolorcore

A series of images created by iteratively blending several custom trained AI models that pull from obscure memetics, hypercollage, shitposting, conspiratorial diagram aesthetics, and the visual language of brainrot, pushing online forms through repeated remix and cross-contamination until they detach from their sources and arrive at a digital grotesque.


See more...
Pokemon / Procession

A pair of vinyl printed metal panels generated through iterative AI remixing of meme folklore, gaming iconography, cute horror, and low resolution shitpost, forming dense scenes where familiar figures slip into a strange zone between the recognizable and the unclassifiable.


See more... Soft Edge Phenomena

A series of enigmatic memes posted on Instagram, paired with an excesively complex companion philosophy book, together exploring how meaning online often rises not from clarity but from misreading, ambiguity, and the unstable conditions that make images feel familiar and distant at once.


See more... A Way In

A 33 minute film built from GTA V director mode footage and videogame glitch compilations, following four custom created characters through a world shaped by error and instability, overlaid with an early ChatGPT poem and original score to reflect how digital worlds emerge from intention, accident, and the tools that shape them.


See more... Psipsikoko

A collaborative project with artist Franco Verrascina that grew from WhatsApp sticker jokes into an audiovisual universe of strange hybrid characters born from early unstable image generation AI tools, expanding into images, videos, sound, and invented digital folklore, ultimately presented across three exhibitions as a self contained world of irony, disturbance, and accidental mythology.


See more... A Model Of Pain

A 2019 short film built from an early research only ChatGPT-2 written poem and a custom Unreal Engine avatar, following a digital body as it drifts through a strange virtual world shaped by the errors and breakdowns of automated language.
