Ilya’s goal is to create psychological tension by blurring the lines between reality and illusion by blending human form with abstraction, creating a surreal, dreamlike state. His work uses surreal imagery to get viewers to think about their own psyches by juxtaposing memories and emotions with seemingly visceral imagery. In his paintings, Shkipin uses both machine learning techniques and traditional artistic techniques to create images that are both familiar yet off-kilter. His paintings blend multiple styles, including surrealism, expressionism, abstract expressionism, cubism, and pop art, to create an otherworldly atmosphere that is simultaneously comforting yet unsettling. Shkipin hopes that by employing neural networks, he can disrupt and disturb people’s comfort zones while also providing them with an outlet for expressing their own discomfort.

Punk artist disturbing the old masters with AI. I’m mostly working with neural networks, deep learning and deep dream codes in Python/PyTorch. I find it truly fascinating how scary and ugly computer’s dreams are so I decided to go back to a time where paintings were all about pure classic beauty and I’m trying to see them from the eyes of our times. I’m running those paintings through a bunch of different algorithms to create the dream-like psychedelic appearance of my pieces by over-processing the images to a point of madness and once I have enough versions I’m layering them in Photoshop to paint “mask” different parts of the layers until it’s perfect. All those different textures are becoming a selection of unique brushes and colors that I use to sublimate my fears and demons into my work.

By synergizing his former practice as a traditional artist working with oil paint with the computer code medium, he enlightened the graphical possibilities of a « figurative-generative » art genre. His digital artworks and resulting pen-plotter drawings, which rely on technology both to exist and to be traded, are his inspiration to remind us of the necessary bond between man and nature, raising attention through visual symbolism about environmental and social matters. Zancan’s series “Garden, Monoliths” and “The Lushtemples”, that focus on rendering natural shapes with mathematical equations and programming code, have become the top-selling collections on the Tezos blockchain.
