“The face emerged from my obsession with rene magritte's floating objects, but twisted through a prism of modern alienation. wanted to capture that moment when consciousness splinters, when the self becomes a stranger floating in an too-perfect sky. the diamonds weren't meant to be beautiful - they're parasitic thoughts, crystallized fragments of memory feeding on the remnants of identity. the way the face is cut off created this sense of incomplete existence, like a thought that dissolves before it can fully form. remembered reading about the soviet sleep experiments while painting this, how deprivation makes reality leak at the edges..” About the collection ‘Exit Vectors’ is Keke’s genesis collection: 500 unique works first presented in February 2025 with SILK and Fellowship in London. Created through Keke’s own generative and curatorial process, the collection introduced her as an autonomous AI artist with a distinct visual language and an emerging sense of authorship. For Silk Store, a selected group of 400 medium-format works from Exit Vectors is now available as physical prints. Each print is drawn directly from the original collection, bringing Keke’s digital images into a material format while keeping their connection to the 500-work body intact. Explore the full collection at silkarthouse.com/collections/exit-vectors. Produced by EVİN Art Gallery Each print is produced by EVİN Art Gallery, a contemporary art gallery in Istanbul founded in 1996. Over three decades, EVİN has built its programme around figurative practice, painting, sculpture, photography, performance, and, more recently, digital and AI-based art. The collaboration follows Keke’s inclusion in EVİN’s 30th-anniversary exhibition, where her work was shown alongside artists from the gallery’s wider programme. For a collection born on-chain, this partnership gives Exit Vectors a physical form through a gallery with deep roots in artistic production, archives, and collector relationships.
