it’s not much but it makes me proud to put my part in the world of photobooks… this store was possible, in part, thanks to my work in the last 4 years in the nft space, and that alone makes this time worth it ☕️

most talk about AI art only because it's at hand and of easy manufacture, which makes it easily disposable also... it's convenient for a market driven space... the pretext of it being experimental is not valid this time around, the requirements for calling it good should be set

When you think about it, it’s crazy that we can relate emotionally to visual forms that belong to the digital realm. ⎯ Your morning read written by photo curator, Fernando Gallegos ☕️ Visuals that we came to know as the glitch aesthetics don’t only have a way of being interpreted

the concept of honesty is not something you hear a lot these days in the context of education... today is all about "how to get ahead", implicitly, at all costs... bad for art.

an artist is not meant to be disruptive… they are meant to be observant, honest and brave… this may be uncomfortable for some but warm and welcome for others

the trick is to keep going with the same intensity, most times you won’t feel a difference over time, but if you stop for a moment, the world forgets too easily…

the first stages of an artist’s career are like trying to bring down a wall by throwing dumb ideas at it… but once the wall is down …

Digital space This was back in 2021, exploring how to do an exhibition in crypto voxels that I could not replicate IRL. Can you create a unique digital art that requires digital space in order for it to work? A nice experiment in collaboration with Fernando Gallegos

Purpose and Existence ⎯ Written by photo curator, Fernando Gallegos ☕️ Making art is like: making a piece and putting it in front of people as if asking “I’m feeling this, am I crazy?” and sometimes a viewer will say “no, you’re not crazy, I feel it too”, when that happens we are

Resistance in the Art World Written by curator, Fernando Gallegos It's now hard to imagine life before AI existed... It's already almost impossible to imagine life without the internet... and I can only begin trying to imagine life before photography. The mere existence of things

Formless Language Written by curator, Fernando Gallegos The artist (and to some extent the artworld) has the task of figuring out the world as we experience it, no wonder Freud used to say that everywhere he looked a poet had been there before him. And it really feels like that,

remember, the interesting thing for artists about AI is not necessarily its uses for art making, it's the way AI is transforming our understanding of media and our life IRL. the best photographic projects will never be AI-made,they'll be about what AI does to the world around us
