Peter Várnai is a media artist, web-developer and cultural worker based in Vienna, Austria. He finished studying Digital Arts (prof. Ruth Schnell, Univercity of Applied Arts Vienna) and earned an MA in arts
His animations are narratives that frequently contain humor, take place in novel, uncharted dimensions, and are inherently ludicrous in an often bizarre way that can only exist in the digital world. The works of Peter are motivated by a desire to bring color and surprise to both the virtual and the other reality too.
Since 2023, he has been a web developer at the Artificial Museum, specialized in augmented reality projects and in embedding 3D graphics into web designs.
