Onyro

Greece

Anthony Kyriazis, working under the artist name Onyro, is a 3D artist who has been working in digital culture since 1998. He started his career working in various design agencies, creating Flash websites for large brands such as Playstation Europe, EA and Empire Interactive. After years of working at leading agencies with major brands, the artist founded his own studio, Onyro Ltd in 2004, and quickly became an established interactive design studio pioneering highend interactive Flash websites and producing award winning work which has been featured in various publications including Taschen’s Web Design Studios 2.

As of January 2021, Onyro has been working as a freelance designer and digital artist, selling his artworks via various crypto art platforms. His artistic style today is instantly recognisable for its surrealistic depictions of otherworldly landscapes. In the artist's worlds, pastel coloured plants and sea life undulate in lush plains, capturing a suspended moment of magic where fantastical fauna and flora interact and thrive.

A realm within our subconscious where the boundless creativity of the human imagination is free to manifest itself into alternative realities. The creation of organic abstract lifeforms and dreamscapes born from our thoughts are given form in a way that is both tangible and interactive, allowing us to enter and explore the collective dreams of everybody we are connected to through the energy surrounding us. Offering endless possibilities of self-discovery, it allows us to explore the depths of our own minds and of those around us though a mycelium like network of interconnected wonderlands.

Crafted with love & care by hand in Houdini. Sound by Onyro.

More on digital art

Generative art
Generative art refers to a way of creating artworks using an autonomous system. In digital art, these are usually generated from code and algorithms created by the artist, often with certain predefined parameters or systems. Although these parameters guide the final outcome of the work, generative art is generally a surprising way to create artworks, as the results are often unexpected and the number of possible outcomes can be infinite.
AI
AI art is a branch of generative art that uses artificial intelligence. Unlike other generative artworks, AI artworks use specific complex algorithms and models derived from machine learning. The most common methods for creating AI art today are GANs (generative adversarial networks) or proprietary prompting platforms such as ChatGPT, Sora, Midjourney, or Dall-e.
3D
3D art uses 3D software such as Blender, Cinema4D, Houdini, or video game software such as Unity to create works of art. In 3D works, artists can either arrange assets (the 'objects' in a 3D artwork or world) that they have created themselves or purchased from other creators to create elaborate environments and scenes (an approach to 3D art called 'set dressing'), or specialize in sculpting, which involves creating their own objects and assets.
Photogrammetry
Photogrammetry is a specialized 3D technique that allows 3D objects to be created from numerous photographs taken of an object or scene from multiple angles. These photos are then compiled to determine the specific positioning, shape, and dimensions of the object in space, and then converted into a 3D model. Initially developed for engineering and urban planning, photogrammetry has become a way for artists to produce extremely accurate 3D models from real-life images.
Collage
An extension of the traditional, plastic approach to collage, digital collage involves searching for and cutting out multiple images, extracting them from their original context, and recomposing them in a new arrangement to create a work of art. Artists can use their own photographs or find images on the internet.
Illustration
Digital illustrations are created using software such as Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, or Procreate. As with drawing on paper, the artist uses a stylus to sketch a figure or object, usually on a tablet, to construct a scene or artistic universe. Unlike traditional drawing methods, digital illustration is much more forgiving, as mistakes can be easily corrected and drawn elements and objects can be easily moved around within a scene.
Video
Video artworks primarily use a recording camera, but may sometimes include additional post-processing or editing to distort, modify or add additional elements to the image. Some artists use state-of-the-art recording equipment to create macro zoom-ins or time lapses, privileging fidelity to the subject matter. Others use additional softwares to significantly modify or warp the video, creating an alternative perspective on the world that surrounds us.
