October 24, 2016 by Arseny Vesnin in Art, China, Sculpture, Portfolios, 2016

Johnson Tsang (previously) is an exceptional artist who skilfully combines figurative sculptural techniques with surreal portrayals.

Shanghai Forever

October 24, 2016 by Arseny Vesnin in China, Motioncollector, Portfolios, TOP 2016, 2016

Urbanist and media artist JT Singh has captured the vibrance and massive scale of Shanghai’s skyline, streets, and infrastructure through a series of experimental projects viewed by millions (This is Shanghai, Walk in Shanghai, etc); hence, contributing greatly to the city's growing global status. With this new film, he turns to the Shanghai of its residents, the lives that revolve not around the city’s 4000 skyscrapers, but around the simpler ways of living, the local charm, and the familiar corner.

Reine Paradis

October 19, 2016 by Arseny Vesnin in Portfolios, Photography, USA, 2016

Reine Paradis constructs narrative photographs staging herself as the central figure in a surreal landscape. Paradis is dressed in orange in her images and is shown interacting in colour filled landscapes and as may thought mainly using IKB (International Klein Blue)


Shot in many locations throughout America, the photo series "Jungle" takes us on an introspective journey across a symbolic and chromatic world, projected above the limit of reality and imagination.


ll the scenes are imagined and conceptualised before shooting in real locations. Once the scene is visualised in it’s entirety, Paradis makes sketches and paints the scene to use as a blue print when photographing the final scene. All the costumes, accessories and origamis are meticulously designed and prepared according to the initial vision of the scene.

Landscapes by James Gilleard

Talented animator and illustrator James Gilleard creates landscapes that definitely can be a sandbox for modern Lonely Toons characters. They only thing I'd add at the end of each perfectly done set is "That's all folks!" phrase

Reality 2.0 by Dmitry Aske

October 18, 2016 by Arseny Vesnin in Russia, Portfolios, Art, 2016

Dmitri Aske had his first solo show in September — October, 2016 in Vladey Space Gallery, Moscow, Russia. The exhibition called Reality 2.0 included eight new artworks made in the artist's unique technique of a multilayer plywood relief especially for the show. All the works are dedicated to the digital era we are living in, now that the Internet takes up more and more of our time and attention becoming for many people the second reality. The addiction some people have might be even compared to a mother-child relationship. At the same time, as Marshall McLuhan wrote as far back as 1960s, people don't actually notice how new media entering our lives are gradually changing us.      

A person born before the 1990s sees video calls, a 'computer-in-your-pocket' phone, and a broadband Internet connection available almost everywhere as materialisation of the future. Meanwhile, the new generation takes all that for granted as a beginning of a new era. In his new body of work, Dmitri Aske reflects our time suggesting that the viewers should contemplate how much all of us are absorbed by Reality 2.0.

"Fixed It" Portraits series by Henrietta Harris

October 17, 2016 by Arseny Vesnin in Art, New Zealand, Portfolios, 2016

Talented artist we discovered few years ago Henrietta Harris has created lots of new artworks since than. Her paintings often involved portraiture with a departure into the surreal with faces skilfully obscured and misplaced by the clean sweep of a brushstroke.

Our friend and resident of Digital Decade Antwerp-based artist Louise Mertens released large-scaled print series titled AKANE

“A new series I’ve been working on during the past few months. Inspired by time, colors, shapes, textures and many impressions I’ve saved during the process of creating. Akane means ‘Deep Red’, the subtle yet strongest color used in the series. All visuals are directed and developed from beginning till end by me and my amazing team. It’s the first time I’ve been working on such large scale”
