ARLO SINCLAIR

Arlo Sinclair is a UK-based artist whose work explores the visual and cultural legacy of obsolete technology. Fascinated by outdated data storage formats—from floppy disks to early peripherals—he transforms these forgotten objects into miniature painted sculptures - subjects which mine the debris of cultural memory. 

Through carefully composed, often humorous depictions, Sinclair bridges the gap between the analog and digital, examining the aesthetics of functionality and the emotional residue of technological change. His practice draws attention to the tactile and visual qualities of floppy disks, treating them not only as historical artifacts but also as vehicles for storytelling and reinterpretation.

Every floppy disks blends nostalgia, satire, and a reverence for design, reframing the binary world through the material language of paint. Sinclair’s work invites viewers to engage with the overlooked charm of everyday tech and the narratives encoded in its form.
