Eli Decker American, b. 1998

Eli Decker (b. 1998) is a painter based in Austin, TX, whose work explores the fusion of analog craft and digital aesthetics through the lens of technoromanticism. With a BA in Studio Art and Computer Science from Colby College, Decker navigates the interplay between traditional materiality and the spectral presence of the digital age, crafting dreamlike atmospheres where technology and intimacy converge. His paintings investigate themes of modern isolation, memory, and connection, reimagining the internet as a tangible, almost sacred landscape. Decker has exhibited at Contracommon, Goodluckhavefun, Co-Lab Projects, McLennon Pen Co., Austin Studio Tour, and Austin Bouldering Project.
