Rococo Diffusion Artifacts reimagines the ornate fluidity of Rococo art through the lens of advanced AI and generative algorithms. In these mesmerizing video loops, emergent patterns and flowing textures evoke the grandeur of 18th-century ornamentation, yet are forged from the unpredictable interactions of custom generative code and diffusion models. The work explores the tension between the natural and the synthetic, presenting a continuously evolving tableau where technology mimics and transforms organic beauty. Immersive and meditative, the pieces invite viewers to reflect on the digital reinterpretation of historical aesthetics and the ephemerality of generative processes.
We are delighted to announce our participation in Neo Botanica,
a group exhibition at LOAD Gallery, Barcelona,
This extraordinary exhibition based in the book brings together artists exploring new forms of botanical aesthetics
through technology and artificial intelligence.
NEO BOTANICA Atlas publication
A Vtero Edition 2025
Plants have always symbolised more than what meets the eye: beauty, fragility, renewal, and the delicate balance of life on Earth.
Neo Botanica – An Atlas of Artificially Generated Flora is a new take on the world of botanicals, showcasing the work of contemporary artists who create gardens of imaginary flora.
Its pages bloom with artificial hybrid flowers and computer-coded bioforms in a collection of extraordinary new species.
A key is hidden inside each of the book’s pages. By using a free app, an extra dimension of the artworks can be accessed – unlocking an animation and bringing the images to life.
Beautifully designed, and with over 260 botanical artworks from leading digital artists, Neo Botanica is a reimagining of the natural world – as you’ve never seen it before.
