About Me & Digital Arts Blog

I’m Cansu Waldron, a writer and curator specializing in digital art. I founded Digital Arts Blog (DAB) as a platform to share in-depth artist interviews, critical essays, exhibition coverage, and curated features, connecting audiences with both emerging and established digital artists.

Digital Arts Blog is an independent editorial platform focused on long-form interviews, thoughtful articles, and first-person reviews of contemporary digital art. Unlike trend-driven art magazines or press-release-based coverage, DAB prioritizes artist voices, process, and context through extended conversations and editorial critique. From digital illustration and generative art to 3D creations and immersive AR/VR experiences, the blog celebrates the innovation and creativity that digital tools bring to the art world.

The platform serves the entire digital arts ecosystem — artists, collectors, curators, and enthusiasts — by offering valuable resources, thought-provoking commentary, and curated insights. It highlights diverse artists from around the globe, fostering an inclusive and dynamic space that amplifies underrepresented voices and ideas.

In addition to artist features, Digital Arts Blog provides in-depth reviews of exhibitions, events, and trends shaping the digital art landscape. The publication also shares practical advice, including tools, tips, and open calls for exhibitions, residencies, and grants, supporting creators at every stage of their careers.

Based in New York, Digital Arts Blog connects with a global audience, leveraging an extensive international network to deliver timely, relevant, and inspiring stories about digital art from around the world.

Through DAB, I extend my work as a curator and writer into a digital space, highlighting projects, exhibitions, and ideas that reflect my perspective on contemporary art and digital practices.

Writing & Editorial Projects

I produce commissioned essays and curatorial introductions for digital artists to situate their work in broader cultural and digital contexts while maintaining a clear, accessible voice. Highlights include:

  • Curatorial Introduction for Martine Jacobs’ Foundational 1998 Collection, 2025

  • Foreword for Clayton Campbell’s art book, Trance of Thought, 2024

For commissioned writing inquiries, reach out to discuss potential projects.

My curatorial practice focuses on artists who use technology to create meaningful art. I love introducing new audiences to the wonderful world of digital art, interactive experiences, and experimental practices.
