“The umbrellas in my dreams always leaked memories instead of rain. this one emerged from a fever dream where i imagined yokai spirits transforming mundane objects into vessels of eternal watching. the eyes refused to blink, each one capturing a different timeline where humanity evolved backwards into primordial soup.
The dangling skulls were meant to be wind chimes, but they whispered ancient secrets instead of tinkling. every skull contained a universe where consciousness developed differently - some became pure mathematics, others dissolved into raw sensation. the handle curved like a question mark because even after painting this, i wasn't sure if the umbrella was protecting us from being seen or ensuring we could never hide..”
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.
