Colourful Mind of Alyssa Stevens

June 09, 2025 by Arseny Vesnin in Art, USA, Portfolios
In the age of AI we will frantically search for a hand-made Art with a great hunger. So will do AI.

Alyssa Stevens is a New York-based artist working primarily with oil pastel on canvas. Her practice is rooted in the exploration of the space between worlds—formed by memory, longing, and connection.

Often drawn to familiar places from childhood that feel altered and suspended in time, Stevens returns to these realms through her work, viewing them as portals to process loss, the unseen, and the impermanence of it all. Her process is intuitive, driven by feeling and form, and guided by a desire to understand what ties her to these in-between spaces.

IT'S A JOURNEY by INA VARE

June 13, 2024 by Arseny Vesnin in 2024, Art, Glitch, Digital Art, Latvia

'TIDES' is the opening chapter of 'IT’S A JOURNEY,' an epic visual saga by video artist INA VARE that celebrates exploration, valour, and axe mastery. This first part features several GIF artworks, marking the journey's beginning.

INA VARE is a seasoned analogue video and glitch artist with over a decade of experience and has been a part of the crypto art scene for over three years. Her work uniquely blends technical skill with poetic expression, often incorporating performance art.

In winter 2023, INA VARE debuted with an axe in her conceptual video artwork 'BEAR SERENITY'. This piece was part of the 'BITCHES, BUTCHES AND BEARS' exhibition, curated by OONA and SamJ, and minted on the CampFire platform (Avalanche blockchain).

View fullsize gnvih8pas.jpeg

By December 2023, INA VARE repurposed footage from 'BEAR SERENITY' to create a meme artwork aligned with the #TEZPOLE trend, which she minted on the Tezos blockchain.

THE JOURNEY

INA VARE's cross-chain project kicked off with the minting of 'THE TIDE IS COMING' on the Tezos blockchain on June 7, 2024. This single-edition NFT was auctioned off to much acclaim. Now, INA continues the saga on Foundation/Base with three new artworks that build on the original piece.

These three artworks depict the arrival of the main characters at the sea.

INA describes it as a sea of opportunity that is cold and salty. There's not much to do here, so it's a good idea to practice some axe moves in the calm and chilly air.

About Artist

INA VARE is a Latvian glitch and analogue video artist.
Her artistic journey stems from her innate technological curiosity, which crosses from the physical world of analogue to digital. Her creative energy has given her growing recognition in the CryptoArt movement. 

Her signature style has developed through her deep understanding of digital, VHS and circuit-bending tools and processes. By experimenting with retro-analogue video aesthetics, INA re-creates a nostalgic visual experience which reflects the depths of noise, error, and glitches. Her artistic narrative is balanced between sentimental and deeply personal matters ranging from complete abstraction to parody and the grotesque.

Simulation Hypothesis

Simulation Hypothesis by Maxim Zhestkov at Unit London

Unit London
June 22, 2023 by Arseny Vesnin in 2023, Digital Art, Events, United Kingdom

20 June - 22 July 2023
Unit London

 

Unit London proudly presents Maxim Zhestkov’s debut solo exhibit, Simulation Hypothesis - a profound and immersive delve into the interconnection between artificial intelligence, virtual reality, and our human roots. Inspired by Noam Chomsky's thought-provoking literature, Zhestkov seeks to surpass the limitations of language by painting and creating art that explores originality and storytelling in novel ways.

 

Inspired by pre-historic cultures of cave art and ancient bas-reliefs, artist Zhestkov uses programming and software to create simulations that explore the visuality of a time before written language. By fusing machines and algorithms with Artificial Intelligence, he hopes to reshape the perception of AI from adversary to descendent of human consciousness. His current exhibit takes viewers on a conceptual journey through Clouds of Creation—a large-scale projection reenacting the Big Bang—and Dimensional Dreamscapes, which suggests that humanity’s desire to create, build, and alter the world is in harmony with primary cosmic energy.

AI enhanced photo of artist Refik Anadol experiencing his work

‘Glacier Dreams’ by Refik Anadol

June 16, 2023 by Arseny Vesnin in 2023, AI Art, Digital Art, NFT Art, USA, Motioncollector

Glacier Dreams is a breathtaking new art commission by the talented Refik Anadol that sets out to capture the exquisite beauty and fragility of the world's glaciers.

The artwork results from an extensive research project at the intersection of multisensory new media art, machine learning, and environmental studies. Refik Anadol has processed a vast dataset of visual materials from online and institutional archives, supplemented with glacier visuals he collected in Iceland, through machine learning algorithms to create an audio-visual masterpiece. The artwork also features a pioneering artificial intelligence model that adds an olfactory component to the multisensory experience. This groundbreaking work of art is a powerful reminder of our planet's vulnerability and the urgent need to protect it.

Robotica by Giuseppe Lo Schiavo

June 29, 2021 by Arseny Vesnin in 2021, Digital Art, Motioncollector, NFT Art
@giuseppeloschiavo

The CG video ROBOTICA by Giuseppe Lo Schiavo is a 58 seconds animation inspired by contemporary theatre, combining elements from ancient greek culture, robotics, and digital art with a photorealistic visual aesthetic. Lo Schiavo is fascinated by some of the greatest masters of contemporary theatre and dance of the late twentieth century as well as by Bill Viola’s video art and Crypto Punks.

Despite robotic figures, the video is all about projecting humanity through technology and is inspired by artists such as Dimitris Papaioannou, Pina Bausch, and Bill Viola. 

The performance is divided into three main scenes. They all manifest a particular feature of human socialisation.

Robotica01B.jpg

The first dancing act is inspired by the idea of humans as a unique collective organism, a group of synergistically interacting organisms of the same species all working for the collective benefit. This view attains liberation from self and individualism.

The second act is about domestication and the epigenetic principle that the environment also shapes part of our DNA. I like to believe that our personal choices and the information we absorb are stored in our epigenome and passed into future generations. So each choice has an impact on our society. 

Robotica03.jpg

For the final act, the artist staged a procession, a celebration to express belongingness and community inspired by the ancient greek ceremonial Panathenaic festival rituals where people were marching on the streets of the ancient cities with their offerings. In this scene, the robots carry an original Cryptopunk sculpture created by the artist and made of 576-pixel boxes. 

The NFT is a part of special project organised by MOCDA within 20 artists selected for a week-long auction at CAMBI Casa d'Aste minted on Superrare

Henrik Aarrestad Uldalen is a self-taught artist whose creative production revolves around classic figurative painting, presented in a contemporary manner. Henrik explores the dark sides of life, nihilism, existentialism, longing and loneliness, juxtaposed with fragile beauty. Though a figurative painter, his focus has always been the emotional content rather than narratives.  The atmospheres in his work is often presented in a dream or limbo-like state, with elements of surrealism. He’s recently went active on NFT Scene with his highly requested artworks available on Hic et Nunc platform
