Atomic Elroy is a conceptual art humorist, manipulating electrons and calling it art! Working as a time based media artist in video installation and performance, he uses a self-mocking approach to all artistic values and standards. Never quite knowing if he is involved in self parody, or satirical social commentary, he uses the art world’s own tool to expose it’s pedantic nature, yet softened by the use of humor.
