After finishing my Streets of Chicago series, I continued exploring new ways of working with AI — something I consider a form of posthuman co-creation. Following my journey through Japan, I began developing a new project: street photography co-created with AI. Even the title alone raises obvious contradictions. Can AI help create street photography —…
Abstract Artistic innovation has long been catalyzed by societal upheaval, as evidenced by movements like Expressionism, Dada, Surrealism, and Abstract Expressionism, each born from historical crises. Today, a multifaceted “global crisis matrix” encompassing geopolitical tensions, AI-driven epistemic disruptions, ecological instability, and a 25% rise in global anxiety (WHO, post-2020) sets the stage for a new…
Defining the value of art sparks as many debates as the question of what art is in itself. I won’t attempt to provide a universal answer in this article, as I lack the expertise — there are entire fields of study dedicated to this complex topic.

Throughout history, humanity has seen several such big developments, and the process is always the same. In the beginning, nobody wants to accept them, and people even fight against them. It’s…
Before we delve deeper, I want to clarify that in the following text, I’ll only be discussing products. I view artworks as products too, and in my opinion, they generally follow similar market rules. While there are industry-specific differences, they mostly adhere to the same principles if you want to bring them to market and…
The narrative behind this project is intertwined with my life’s journey. It all began two years ago when I was diagnosed with congestive heart failure. Statistics suggest that 50% of individuals with this condition do not survive beyond 5 years — a sobering reality that led me to contemplate life and mortality deeply. As an…
There are two main ways artists work. In one, they feel a pressure to create something specific. They have an idea in mind, and they work on it until it’s done. This process is usually short-term, with a clear beginning and end. Once the artwork is finished, the artist often feels satisfied but also a…
