Nikolina is a Croatian visual artist, working in the realm of contemporary surrealism.

With elements of subtle allegory, she expresses her eerie visions through screenshots of the imaginary story, by guiding a viewer on a journey through visionary interpretations of her fictional worlds.From dreamlike landscapes and fantasy scenery, to animal characters, as well as strange creatures and environments, she uses the observation of inner conflicts and questions that arise from them, as a dreamy and vivid example of her personal experience of the world.

Nikolina's work has gained multiple international awards and has been shown in numerous international exhibitions as well as several art projects. Her work was exhibited globally, in galleries and museums of Europe, USA and Asia, most recently being exhibited at an individual exhibition in Paris. Her art is also represented in various books, magazines and publications, including the prestige "Lexikon phantastischer K"unstlerinnen" by Gerhard Habarta.

Caramur'u Baumgartner is an award winning visual artist from Brazil. As an alchemist mixing colors and elements, and a wizard casting lights and shades, his legacy as a visual artist reveals a unique, intimate, surreal and psychedelic place. The junctions of saturated colors, fluid forms, lights and lattices leads you to a new, ethereal and fertile universe, where the fauna and flora sensually merge, where the artist lives.

Bangkok-based artist Tanasan Kanakasem explores the idea that girls might bottle up pain, rage and other wild feelings underneath pretty faces. In his recent series Girl Without Smile he sums up that ideas using colour, objects and wild animals to symbolise the needs and wild desires they may be keeping hidden inside his characters.

In her most recent work, Objects of Desire, van Dijk investigated the increasingly intimate relationship between humans and technology that may eventually lead to blurring of boundaries between the two.
To illustrate the concept, the designer, invented a three-step method.

In step one, the first dataset was curated containing both realistic (representing human genitals) and abstract sex toys. These toys are objects we by nature have a very close physical relationship with and could also be seen as an example of (sexual) objectification.

In step two, a pre-trained machine learning (ML) model was used to generate a collection of 1,000 new, non-existing shapes based on the initial dataset.

In step three, the generated images were curated and translated back into a three- dimensional physical reality. This resulted in a series of undefined, anthropomorphic, human-like sculptures.

The Objects of Desire design project encourages us to critically evaluate the fundamental questions and ethical implications related to the rapidly evolving relationship between humans and technology. It ‘confronts the viewer with a speculative scenario and leaves them to decide whether they perceive the outcome as human, non-human or something that exists in between.’ (van Dijk, 2021)
