A. L. Crego

A. L. Crego

Digital artist A.L Crego walks comfortably in the midpoint between the stillness of the picture and the continuous but condemned to an end frames of the film. This self- thought digital artisan, creates mostly impressive loops to directly represent his very own mental images generating an hypnotic visual mantra. Crego, who uncovered his passion for this artform after recognising how the moving images made people think faster and more accessibly than other forms of art, creates images with a sort of sci-fi classical aesthetic that seem to be speaking for themselves in a way that often feels like they're images culled directly from his own subconscious. Tied to the creation of loops—rather than any specific software or hardware he can get his hands on to make them—it comes down to people, books, quotes he writes, poetry, sociology, psychology and more for his inspiration. Now something of a heavy-hitter when it comes to the GIF making industry, Crego has been approached by various DJs, artists, and agencies who are all interested in getting their own personal work made. In his way of taking out gif format from the web he is spreading his pieces through projectors, digital canvases, cinemas and Augmented Reality apps, playing with the new born “digital public space” and making questions about the concept of museums, art and even reality. The impact of his work on blockchain has been significant, not only for its ability to create collectible works but also for its participation in debates about the future of intellectual property and the value of digital works in a decentralized context. For Crego, gif and loop format is not only a way of creating and watching art but a new way of thinking.

abhominal

abhominal

Jason Hopkins (aka abhominal) is a traditionally trained artist based in London, UK. His art practice has focussed upon digital techniques since the early 2000s. Adopting 3D software to create surreal, bio-geometric, semi-figurative abstractions, abhominal emerged as a weblog in 2006 – exploring concepts of genetic engineering and the potential implications of science and technology on the human species as we journey towards a posthuman future. Computer algorithms became a key tool in creating these reconfigurations of the human form, and AI image generation was a logical digital medium to explore and develop these concepts further. It is perhaps ironic that AI may challenge our understanding of what it means to be human more profoundly in a single decade than genetic engineering has over several. abhominal (ab “away from” + hominis “man”) encapsulates a narrative about the future of our species and the entropy of the human condition.

Demon Ego

Demon Ego is a multidisciplinary artist, demonic expressionist, and graphic designer. He holds a master’s degree in graphic design and has worked as a research assistant, focusing on demons, monsters, and mythological creatures in art and design. Demon defines himself as a multimedia artist, refusing to be confined to a single field or medium, and instead embraces diverse methods and tools to tell his stories. His journey into art began with childhood nightmares sparked by watching horror films. These films not only inspired his creative endeavors but also instilled a lifelong fascination with fear, the surreal, and the grotesque. His early works served as a way to confront those fears and transform them into something tangible. Over time, this foundation evolved into a distinctive artistic style, influenced by horror movies, Japanese and Greek mythology, comics, video games, psychology, philosophy, anime, and manga.

Francien Krieg

Francien Krieg

Francien Krieg is a Dutch painter and AI artist who has made a name for herself by painting older naked women. Her artwork is recognized for its unique celebration of the female form, particularly those of older women, and for challenging traditional beauty standards. Krieg's work often portrays women in their natural state, without the artificial enhancements commonly found in the media. This depiction of older women in their raw and unapologetic form is not only empowering but also an important step towards breaking the stigma surrounding aging and the female body. In addition to her traditional paintings, Krieg has also started to incorporate artificial intelligence technology into her artwork. Through this, she has been able to create hybrid pieces that combine her own creativity with the unpredictable and exciting algorithms generated by machines. The result is a fascinating blend of human and machine intelligence, which has opened up new avenues of exploration for Krieg as an artist. Overall, Francien Krieg's artwork is a celebration of femininity, age, and natural beauty, and it challenges us to reconsider our traditional notions of what is considered attractive and worthy of attention in the art world.

Gary Edward Blum

Gary Edward Blum was born in Montara, California, a coastal town 30 minutes south of San Francisco. For the better part of two decades, he has explored duality and dependent opposition through his paintings and, more recently, photography. The grandson of both Italian and Swiss immigrants, Blum grew up surrounded by stories of exploration and independence. In 2000, he traveled to India, where he was introduced to Eastern philosophy and religion. Upon returning, he began incorporating themes of dependent opposition and meditation into his work—elements that remain evident today. Blum earned his M.F.A. from the University of California, Berkeley, and a B.A. in Graphic Design from California State University, Chico. More recently, he was an affiliate artist at Headlands Center for the Arts from 2015 to 2017.

Jakestudyos

Jakestudyos

Jakestudyos grew up in the densely populated corridors of Manggahan, Pasig in the Philippines – a country in that a vibrant, yet often overlooked, scene full of creativity thrives, a testament to the resilience and artistic fervor of its inhabitants. It is here that we find Jakestudyos, an artist who has navigated through a tumultuous journey, one marked by personal challenges and a relentless pursuit of artistic expression. From his earliest memories, Jakestudyos was drawn to the world of art. His childhood was steeped in the colors and forms of street art, a medium that served not just as a backdrop to his everyday life but as a source of inspiration. His journey into art wasn’t a straightforward path; rather, it was a path marked by familial expectations and personal struggles. Urged by his family to pursue architecture, he found himself at a crossroads between societal expectations and his own artistic inclinations. However, the pivotal moment in Jakestudyos’ journey came with the diagnosis of dysthymia in November 2020. It was a time of introspection and healing, where art became not just a form of expression but a sanctuary. His art, deeply rooted in the aesthetics of street art and the hand-painted billboards of his youth, began to take on new dimensions. It became a voice for his struggles, a canvas for his resilience. The essence of Jakestudyos’ art lies in its authenticity and its capacity to mirror the human experience. His works are a reminder of the power of art to heal, to connect, and to transform. His visual language is an amalgamation of color, form, and cultural narrative that speaks to the soul of the Filipino streets – alive with energy and a testimony to the resilience of the human spirit. The figures in his work, often portrayed with disproportionate, cartoonish bodies, are emblematic of a society steeped in technology- hybrids of human experience and the digital personas we adopt.
