Driven by new modes of abstraction in the age of information, Jeremy Rotsztain works as an artist through his knowledge in software programming. He experiments with computer graphics through virtual reality, video installations and mobile phone apps, approaching his practice as a creative coder. The media of painting is heavily present in his colorful and digital artworks. Rotsztain challenges the capacities of human attention by presenting his art as a distraction.

His work has been exhibited throughout the United States and internationally, including Zentrum für Kunst und Medien (ZKM), Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, San Jose Institute of Contemporary Art, Cooper-Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum, New York Hall of Science, Boston Cyber Arts Festival, Festival du nouveau cinéma de Montréal, and New Forms Festival.
