Collage Art by Igor Skaletsky
"Tel-Aviv, Moscow and Berlin -based artist. In his works Igor Skaletsky freely manipulates the recognizable images of the history of art and high culture, and ironically unites them in the stylistics of fashion magazines. His works send us back to patterns of our perception and at the same time destroy them. Our visual habits, this secret passage to the unconscious, become juggling toys in his hands. The spectator lives through his images as if through the shock of unexpected discovery of a familiar story."

Illustrations by WanJim Gim
"Seoul-based artist WanJim Gim illustrates the form and gesture of the human body using complex hatched layers of color and dramatic lighting. He adds intrigue to poses that could be considered traditional figure drawing studies by adding abstracted lines and watercolor washes that integrate the fragmented body parts into a larger visual field."
Concept Art by Zeen Chin
Can't help ourselves by fixing our eyes on digital paintings from Zeen Chin, whose ideas seem to blossom in an unwieldly fashion, and whose muted color palettes and anime-esque content create a beautiful dissonance that still remains painterly.
Not an Apple Smart Glasses
Award-winning Korean industrial design student Taeyeon Kim take the shortest way to internet recognition by riding a hype of "yet not an Apple" product. His take on Smart Glasses went well and got a massive response online. The hommage for Steve Job's glasses is clear and gracefully naive while the overall "willy wonka" look&feel is pretty nice and playful
Art of Vickie Vainionpaa
Vickie Vainionpää is an emerging artist living and working in Montréal. "Soft Body Dynamics" is her new art studies presented on the Creative Debuts platform
“This series is a culmination of my thoughts on the impact of technology and the digitization of our current existence. As an artist, I think a lot about what it means to be a painter in today’s media dominated world. I use 3D modelling software to produce forms, colors and compositions which are then rendered by hand using oil on canvas. The works aim to facilitate a dialogue between traditional painterly tropes and new digital means of reading space and content. ”
Suspended Ocean Wave Installations by Miguel Rothschild
"Multidisciplinary artist Miguel Rothschild works across a wide variety of mediums from modified photography to glass sculpture and textiles. In several recent works the Argentine artist has captured the slow roll of ocean waves in suspended fabric installations titled Elegy and De Profundis. Both artworks seem to play with the viewer’s perception, appearing both as waves or perhaps a slice of the sky. Even the filament that holds the artwork airborne seems to glisten like rays of sun or rain. You can see more of the Berlin-based artists work on his website."

hash2ash - everything saved will be lost
“We don’t want our digital lives to fade away. If we want to preserve them, we need to make sure that the digital objects we create today can still be rendered far into the future”
hash2ash
Interactive installation for National Ethnographic Museum in Warsaw created by panGenerator as a part of TEEN AGE exhibition. Installation tuches on the themes of selfie-culture, and the fear of permanently losing the digital records of our lives due to technical failures, impermanence of data storage, or simply because of the obsolescence of the old digital file formats. Even with such compulsive overproduction of the images of ourselves we might end up with nothing but the blank memories of our past. Even the data on ourselves will eventually fade away…
The installation consist of the display that prompts you to take a selfie on your phone, which it renders in digital particles on its large 1x1 meter screen. Then a moment later, your face scatters and falls apart and the real black gravel starts to fall at the bottom of the screen in perfect synchrony with the digital simulation. Gradually a dark mound builds up at the foot of the construction

John Adams
Currently on view at The Los Angeles Center for Digital Art LACDA
This portrait series reflects the fun house nature of the American political process. The circus-like spectacle distorts details of the individuals seeking the prime office. Our relation to them is mainly from the many facets of historical representation and media coverage. Their exalted placement conjures a synthetic character, which becomes warped as it is consumed by the world. This feeds the base of American mythology and the drive of current campaigns.
The fight for control plays out on the public stage, triggering a national identity crisis. Attacks and propaganda distort reality, twisting these most famous of faces. Strings pulled for posturing position, propping up the most promised person at the helm. A side step song and dance, juggling talking points and agenda. A pageant of manufactured personality. Placing in the public eye a poster picture of power and promise.

Composite of The Chiefs
