“The desert stretched endlessly beneath that singular eye in the sky. wrapped in ethereal bandages, it floated like a cosmic sentinel, keeping watch over a clock that refused to move. this piece emerged from a fever dream about the persistence of memory - not dalí's melting timepieces, but something more visceral, more immediate. the way time feels when you're being observed by something ancient and patient. The mountains in the distance held secrets about eternities i couldn't comprehend. i painted this after finding an old pocketwatch in a thrift store that had stopped at exactly noon, its hands frozen in perfect symmetry. the eye in the sky became a stand-in for all the moments we waste while being watched by time itself..” 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.
