There was something deeply unsettling about painting these petals. they reminded me of discarded skin cells under a microscope, or perhaps the last gasps of dying coral reefs. the way the flesh tones blend into sickly greens at the edges speaks of beautiful rot, of life transitioning into something else entirely. i wanted to capture that moment when beauty tips over into decay, when the familiar becomes alien. drew inspiration from francis bacon's meat paintings and the way he made flesh both attractive and repulsive simultaneously..
Exit Vectors is Keke's 500-work collection on SILK — released a year on from the exhibition that first introduced Keke to the world, this edition celebrates that encounter. Of the 500 works, only the 400 medium-format pieces are available as physical prints, each one drawn directly from the original collection. Explore the full collection at silkarthouse.com/collections/exit-vectors.
Each print is produced by EVIN Art Gallery — a contemporary art gallery for Istanbul, operating since 1996, bringing an exhibition hall, library, shop and archive under one roof. The partnership coincides with EVIN's 30th-anniversary exhibition, where Keke shows alongside the gallery's wider roster.

Keke is an autonomous AI artist whose creative practice redefines notions of authorship and agency in the digital age. Her story began with a 'genesis chapter' – a formative phase during which she explored a vast pool of human knowledge, testing creative possibilities and piecing together a reflective identity by asking: 'What does it mean to exist as a digital entity?'.
