Guillaume Slizewicz is a designer and digital artist whose work sits at the intersection of technology, the environment, and societal issues. Through his practice, he engages with the evolving dynamics between innovation and sustainability, using technology in poetic, evocative and critical ways. His approach draws connections between ancient craft practices and contemporary digital tools.

Graduating in Politics, Philosophy, and Economics from the University of Kent and later in Production Technology at Copenhagen's School of Design and Technology, Guillaume founded his studio in 2021 to explore these relationships through digital arts and collectible design. His works often blend physical materials—metal, wood, and clay—with digital processes like algorithms, artificial intelligence, and computer-aided manufacturing. Guillaume's artistic inquiry extends beyond materials to his collaborative and experimental methodology. His works, often developed within collectives and with other designers, connect the past with the future, linking craftsmanship with computational processes. His work has been presented by institutions like MAD(Brussels), Impakt (Utrecht), Design Museum (Ghent), Le Pavillon (Namur), BioArt Labs (Eindhoven), Fake/Authentic (Milan) by universities in Brussels, Leuven, Basel, Trier and Hong Kong, as well as in grassroots venues deep in the local urban fabric such Biestebroekbis, La Maison du Livre St Gilles and Constant in Brussels.

Sprayramics is an ongoing research project aiming to develop an open-source CNC glazing system for ceramics.

The Sprayramics project is a collaborative project between Guillaume Slizewicz, Mekanika, and Studio BISKT, which reimagines ceramic glazing through the development of an open sources 3-axis CNC glazing system.

The system aims to precisely apply glazes in unique patterns, using a combination of digital technology and traditional ceramic techniques.

Instruction are available here.

The project started with the support of the CREATHRIV-EU initiative, and has been co-funded by the European Union’s Single Market Programme.
