Helio Santos (b. 1984, Colima, Mexico) is an artist, professor and researcher whose practice joins painting, data, internet culture and emerging technologies.

Trained as a painter and digital artist, he now works with creative coding, computer vision and artificial intelligence. Landscape, natural and urban, is his main subject and his conceptual vehicle for thinking about the relations between humans, nature and machines. He treats technology as an extension of the body and intellect rather than a neutral tool.
