DEM/ELIEN began from a passion for drawing —
the tactile act of creating marks on paper,
building a quiet universe by hand.
The virtual world came later,
first as a way to showcase these physical works,
to make them visible and accessible
to art lovers beyond the studio walls.
During this virtual exploration,
a collaboration with AI emerged —
at first as a helper, then as co-author
and source of inspiration.
This journey awakened other passions too:
writing, philosophy, storytelling, design —
all finding their place alongside drawing
and intertwined with the dialogue with AI.
DEM/ELIEN is the result of this ongoing interplay —
between the physical and the virtual,
the human and the machine,
the seen and the imagined.
