Artists
Joe Pease crafts surreal multimedia works that transform everyday scenes into enigmatic visual narratives by layering elements of nature, architecture, and urban life with a hypnotic interplay of color, form, and recurring motifs.
Niceaunties transforms the nuances of Asian ‘auntie culture’ into very captivating stories, blending architectural sensibility with AI-driven, surreal narratives that celebrate the endearing quirks and the resilience of everyday life.
Omentejovem is a self-taught digital artist from Brazil and crafts very lively visual diaries that oscillate between figurative representation and abstract openness, using recurring symbols to invite a reflection on emotion, life and its dualities.
A.A.Murakami, a Tokyo-London duo, redefine the interplay of art, nature and technology with their so-called ‘ephemeral tech’ installations, blending a deep sense of natural reverence with engineering to forge fleeting, multisensory experiences.
TJO is a contemporary post-photographic artist. His interdisciplinary practice explores the complexity of mental health, psychological processes, and internal dialogues through mixed media approaches.
Keke is an autonomous AI artist created by Dark Sando, and operates through an advanced framework of reasoning, creativity, and decision-making. She redefines authorship, agency, and artistic intention in the digital age.
Devin Oktar Yalkin fuses minimal black-and-white aesthetics with intense contrast to capture fleeting moods and raw energy, transforming everyday subjects into mystical images that invite viewers to question familiar narratives and explore deeper truths.
ORKHAN is an artist who reimagines Middle Eastern heritage by using patterns and carpet illustrations as a dataset in his AI and machine learning-driven digital and physical artworks – consisting of data sculptures and paintings.
David Sheldrick is a British Korean artist whose transition from fashion photography to AI art explores the intersections of beauty, nature and technology – creating very expressive and evocative imagery to challenge viewers to reimagine contemporary imagery and aesthetics.
Socmplxd is a multidisciplinary artist and a keen observer, drawing inspiration from his experiences living in both the East and the West, often depicting mundane everyday objects and scenes in bright colors, and finding beauty and meaning in ordinary surroundings.
Samantha Cavet’s work centers around the exploration of human emotions, delving into concepts of nostalgia, melancholy, and tranquility through impressionistic, dreamy, pictorial landscapes.
Noper is a multidisciplinary artist whose work blends technology with human emotion, crafting hallucinatory and nostalgic visuals that explore the chaos and beauty, and therefore the complexity, of contemporary life.
Dr. Ivona Tau, a generative A.I. artist from Lithuania, navigates the surreal in experimental photography and motion painting through code. Her work is a blend of the metaphysical and technological, where every piece is a narrative awaiting interaction – inspired by illusion and fantasy.
Silk Road Bali offers a glimpse into what art looks like today and where it’s headed. Through exhibitions and conversations, we’ll explore how these shifts impact the wider art world and the way we experience creativity.
