Artist Spotlights - Don’t Miss
Sara Shakeel — The Forgotten Sense
The award-winning artist (1.5M on Instagram; collabs with Coach, Swarovski, La Mer) presents a glittering digital environment in her signature style—shimmering with light while reflecting on what we’ve lost: touch, earth, and warmth.
Johanna Jaskowska — Synthetic Rest
A pioneer of digital aesthetics, Jaskowska is best known for the viral Beauty3000 AR filter and work with Adidas, Nike, and Kenzo. Synthetic Rest invites you into a serene yet uncanny space where technology becomes skin and silence becomes presence—a meditation on intimacy at the human–machine edge.
