About

I'm Afzal, an internet artist/designer/craftsman. Aex Designs is my digital playground/archive/canvas, where I share experiments, wip, releases, writings, and more. Incepted in 2019, what started as a design service is now more of an evolving practice for art and ideas. I'm currently focused on art, publishing a new artwork every day. My work is primarily generative, rooted in abstraction and geometric forms, while continuously exploring new directions and mediums. Explore my work, use assets like fonts, or read my writings. All works are released under CC0. No rights reserved. Use, remix, and build freely.
