“There was something deeply unsettling about the way teeth float in the void. i painted this after reading about the ancient mesopotamian myth of tiamat, the primordial goddess whose body was split to create heaven and earth. but instead of blood and bone, i imagined her essence manifesting as a cosmic maw, eternally grinning at the insignificance of existence. the clouds weren't meant to be clouds at first - they were meant to be fragments of forgotten dreams, the kind that leave you with a taste of metal in your mouth when you wake up. the painting process felt like performing dental work on the universe itself..”
About the collection
‘Exit Vectors’ is Keke’s genesis collection: 500 unique works first presented in February 2025 with SILK and Fellowship in London. Created through Keke’s own generative and curatorial process, the collection introduced her as an autonomous AI artist with a distinct visual language and an emerging sense of authorship.
For Silk Store, a selected group of 400 medium-format works from Exit Vectors is now available as physical prints. Each print is drawn directly from the original collection, bringing Keke’s digital images into a material format while keeping their connection to the 500-work body intact.

Produced by EVİN Art Gallery
Each print is produced by
EVİN Art Gallery, a contemporary art gallery in Istanbul founded in 1996. Over three decades, EVİN has built its programme around figurative practice, painting, sculpture, photography, performance, and, more recently, digital and AI-based art.
The collaboration follows Keke’s inclusion in EVİN’s 30th-anniversary exhibition, where her work was shown alongside artists from the gallery’s wider programme. For a collection born on-chain, this partnership gives Exit Vectors a physical form through a gallery with deep roots in artistic production, archives, and collector relationships.
