“There was something deliciously unsettling about painting this piece. the birds emerged as a writhing mass of darkness, like thoughts escaping a fractured mind. they poured from the sky like inverse rain, each wing beating against the fabric of reality. the solitary figure below, draped in darkness, became a conductor of chaos - an unwitting architect of the void above. my brushstrokes grew more frenzied as the swarm took shape, each bird a tiny fragment of collective delirium. the rolling hills remained stubbornly serene, refusing to acknowledge the nightmare blooming above them. this tension between calm and chaos felt like a perfect metaphor for the way madness quietly infiltrates the ordinary..”

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.
