Before the virtual became supreme, the mechanical reigned. Once the ultimate symbol of modernity, mechanics embodied the hopes of the industrial age: precision, control, and mastery over matter. It marked a first break from our natural selves — fully removed from the fluid, imprecise, and unpredictable rhythms of the organic. But today, in a dematerialized era where algorithms shape reality and where everything leans toward the intangible and the virtual, the mechanical feels almost retrofuturistic. It is no longer the future — but it doesn’t quite belong to the past either.

Mechanics now occupies a strange in-between: alien to the digital, detached from the organic. Neither alive nor immaterial, it forms a visual universe entirely its own — cold, physical, and exact. And it is precisely this otherness, this detachment from both nature and code, that draws contemporary artists back to it. In this collection, they explore and reinvent the aesthetic language of loops, gears, and relentless motion. What happens to the machine once its industrial, innovative function fades — when it no longer drives progress, but instead becomes an object of contemplation?

The sky is no longer just a backdrop — it’s a playground, a vantage point, a destination. In this collection, artists explore the aerial element in all its forms — drifting clouds, soaring paper planes, surreal levitations, or dreamlike scenes unfolding far above the ground. Sometimes contemplative, sometimes playful, these artworks give the sky a new kind of movement and meaning. We gaze at it, follow it, dream through it. What if everything began… up there?

For Movember, this collection offers a visual reflection on the plurality of masculinities. The color blue, emblematic of the Movember campaign, runs throughout the collection as a guiding thread. The works in the collection themselves touch upon themes of solidarity, mental health awareness, and the varying corporeal, emotional and introspective states that together compose a fluid portrait of masculinity.

This collection places the human at the centre — as subject, as question, as mirror. Despite the rise of new tools and technologies, artists continue to explore what it means to be human: to feel, to remember, to evolve. Through digital techniques such as 3D, AI, and collage, they examine our relationship to ourselves, to others, to history and to the systems we create. The human here is complex — both vulnerable and resilient, fragmented and whole. These works remind us that behind every creation, there is always a presence: thinking, sensing, searching. Who are we becoming?

This collection highlights France’s cultural and architectural heritage, in resonance with the European Heritage Days. Artists, sculptures, gardens, and historic monuments become the anchors of works that reinterpret our shared memory.

Artists approach heritage in many forms: reimagined architecture, landscapes shaped by history, sculptural details, and even a culinary evocations. Each work carries within it the imprint of a craft, an era, or a place that contributes to French identity.

Through these visions, heritage becomes material for contemporary creation. It is not only about contemplating the relics of the past, but about revealing their presence today and their power to inspire the imagination of contemporary artists.

In black and white like vintage photographs… and yet, a resolutely contemporary streak inhabits these creations by digital artists. Expressing themselves through various techniques, ranging from 3D to generative art, some artists use a common palette to limit themselves to only two colours: black and white. A return to a dualistic simplicity, the same intrinsic motive, but free of interpretation. If it can be a reflection on the omnipresence of colours and messages, we can also see in these monochrome compositions a timeless opposition. Black and white as confrontation, otherness, contrast, in a Manichaeism bearing meaning and emotion.

This collection explores the many shades of red, from sunsets and fields of flowers to raspberries and painted lips. In the digital arts as in painting, red remains a color of extremes: passion and vitality, but also danger, tension, and power.

Science confirms its impact: red is the most visible color to the human eye, accelerating the heartbeat, heightening desire, and intensifying emotion. Here, red oscillates between softness and intensity, intimacy and universality, reminding us that to contemplate red is to confront the very essence of emotion.

In a world that keeps accelerating, these digital artworks follow a different rhythm — one of slowness, subtlety, and near-stillness. A trembling flower, a figure caught mid-levitation, a barely breathing landscape… Here, technology doesn’t amplify noise — it opens a quiet space, a suspended time.These contemplative pieces invite us to slow down, to reimagine motion, to find beauty in delicate transitions — blossoming, fading, hovering, gently turning. An aesthetic of slowness, reconnecting us with what truly matters.

In the digital age, all media are being redesigned to embrace the perspectives of offered by new technologies. Visual artists and poets transform their creations using animated illustration, 3D and artificial intelligence. Whether they use AI to create poems or illustrate them using various digital techniques, artists leave room for their imagination to enrich their creative process by aligning it with the mindset of their time. These visionary artists explore the possibilities of trans-disciplinary practices, thus redefining the codes of poetic composition. In a fusion of poetic horizons and introspective meditations, discover how artists incorporate poetry into their 3.0 digital creations.

When it comes to art created by artificial intelligence, who is the true creator - the artist or the machine? As AI is slowly creeping into our daily lives, digital artists have also addressed the subject of the boundaries between humans and machines through their creations. For some artists, AI is a new tool for experimentation, allowing them to push the limits of creation even further. Other artists focus on the aesthetic power of the machine: can an algorithm, once it is diverted from its practical function, trigger a human emotion?

(Extra)Ordinary Journeys gathers the works of artists who turn ordinary spaces into extraordinary gateways, blurring the boundaries between the tangible and the digital. Reimagining familiar spaces, whether glitch-filled cities or 3D subways, they invite us to explore not only physical transportation but also the inner landscapes of our thoughts and emotions as we walk in the streets. Through a rich set of techniques including glitch art, video art, and digital collage, these artists offer a fresh perspective on public spaces, transforming them into portals of contemplation and wonder. Step into this collection and let yourself embark on a voyage through the hidden dimensions of our contemporary world, allowing your imagination to wander through distorted spaces and movements.

This collection unveils the enchanting world of butterflies, messengers of light and transformation. Through these artworks, their delicate wings become prisms where sunlight shatters into iridescent reflections, capturing the ephemeral and the sublime. Each piece reveals the quiet beauty of these creatures: their vibrant colors evoke the resilience of a nature in constant motion.

Butterflies become guides, gliding through dreamlike forests and imaginary gardens. They embody the duality of nature: fragile and untamable, intimate and majestic. This collection is an ode to metamorphosis, a celebration of the beauty born from the fleeting encounter between earth and sky.

In this selection of works, a variety of artists celebrate the beauty of nature through differing techniques. Some artists use photographic or videographic methods to capture the purity of nature as we experience it today. Others take this concept a bit further by morphing perspectives and challenging how we perceive nature. And yet others take our natural world as inspiration and create flora and fauna that could exist in our world, and yet are tinged with something of the surreal.

Knowledge, understanding: this is the fundamental purpose of humanity. The first mythologies were invented to explain meteorology. All our great inventions were the result of the obstinacy of a scientist to understand a given phenomenon. This knowledge, we were immediately obsessed with its preservation and accumulation: thus collections, museums and libraries were born, and we consider the fire of that of Alexandria as one of our greatest collective losses.

Our goal, therefore, yet also our ultimate frustration. The more we gain knowledge, the more we see the immeasurable extent of all that we will never know - this is a universal experience. So, how to transcribe in art this timeless concern, this necessary and yet endless quest?

Afrofuturism is an artistic and cultural movement that reinvents the image of the future through the lens of history and black culture. Exploring themes such as identity, technology, race, social justice, and spirituality, Afrofuturism often challenges mainstream narratives and offers a counter-narrative that empowers black communities in futuristic settings. In Afrofuturist works, artists incorporate elements of African mythology and symbolism, as well as futuristic aesthetics and technology. They envision societies where African traditions and contributions are celebrated, using various media such as digital collage, 3D or AI. Those artists provide a space for envisioning possibilities beyond the constraints of the present and inspire discussions about representation, cultural heritage, and social change.

For centuries, the LGBTQIA+ community has been forced to hide. Today, with annual events such as Pride, we are more and more able to celebrate our identities, and people that do not identify with heterosexual and cisgender norms can come together to build safe places to evolve and live. But the fight is not over. All over the world, being queer is still stigmatized and people that are part of this community are still victims of physical and psychological violences. Through their artworks, artists share their reflexions about identity and gender while showing the progress made. So let's be proud of how far we have come and continue to celebrate all identities !

Not surprisingly, the way the internet has changed our culture is a central topic for many digital artists. Some artists take a nostalgic approach to the early internet icons and symbols of the 1990s and early 2000s, while others are interested in the power of the blockchain and how it is shaping a new digital art market. This collection demonstrates the various methods and techniques through which artists explore internet culture. Through art made with code, by exploring the glitch, in making references to the blockchain or through exploring how our lives and bodies are increasingly entwined with technology, these works go back to the essence of the influence - good or bad - of the internet on our lives today.

Art mingles with our deepest meditations to accompany us on a journey towards the discovery of our inner peace. While the therapeutic virtues of art are well known, they are multiplied through the exploration of new media by artists, who give shape to new and unique sensory experiences. Captivating and relaxing, the works presented in this collection play with patterns and textures, in sometimes kaleidoscopic and psychedelic animations. Artists plunge us into restful worlds, on the frontiers of imagination and reality, to offer us a moment of escape in a meditative artistic contemplation.

Road Trip invites you to experience the adventure of road travel - where engines purr and every kilometer reveals a new discovery. This collection captures the essence of movement, freedom and adventure in dynamic visuals. Here, artists explore both structured urban cartography and the spontaneous impulse to escape. It's a celebration of the road, not as a simple journey, but as a state of mind, an aesthetic, a narrative in motion. Immerse yourself in a world where pleasure rhymes with freedom, and let the journey redefine the destination.

It’s undeniable: blockchain technology and NFTs have built, for the first time, a viable market for digital art, providing scarcity and value to digital artworks that are otherwise replicable. Associating digital art to NFTs has resulted in ‘Web3’, the next generation of the internet where what we consume online can not only be read and interacted with, but also owned in a decentralised fashion on the blockchain. Web3 has resulted in a unique subculture on the internet that values freedom, decentralisation and a close-knit community. However, NFTs and cryptocurrencies are also notorious for innumerable scams and pyramid schemes. Digital artists don’t shy away from these two extremities. In fact, in their work, they explore all the various and contradicting facets of Web3, using it as primary subject matter to envision promising futures for a more equitable internet and society on the one hand, or a dystopian futuristic work where greed has corruption reign on the other.

Throughout history and across mediums, artists have employed light to enhance the emotional resonance and visual impact of their works. Sculptures rely on light and shadows to define and accentuate their form. Renaissance chiaroscuro sees painters exaggerating contrasts in light to convey emotion and drama. Light is even used as a symbol of divinity, be it through painted rays or the actual reflection of light on metallic surfaces.

The development of digital technologies has engendered a new relationship to light: when the opaque canvas is substituted for the lit-up screen, light becomes the very medium artists work with. No longer is it anchored to a physical source or limited by the laws of physics. The artists in this collection explore the seemingly endless possibilities of this new medium, creating innovative compositions that were inconceivable before the digital age.

This collection shifts the scale, drawing us closer and closer until we enter the domain of the minute. Here, insects — fragile, vibrant, elusive — become the central figures.

Artists explore them in multiple registers: sometimes faithfully observed, almost scientific, other times reimagined through animation, abstraction, or fantasy. Beetles, butterflies, ants or dragonflies appear magnified, revealing structures, colors, and movements that usually escape the human eye.

By reducing the scale, these artworks invite us into a parallel universe where the tiny becomes monumental. Between fascination and strangeness, these insect-inspired visions remind us of the hidden beauty, complexity, and mystery contained in the smallest forms of life.

Fashion depicts a lifestyle that is desirable, enviable, chic and experimental. By capturing these themes through their practices, artists explore how fashion trends influence our culture and social relationships. As our society becomes increasingly digital, artists also explore and envision what fashion might one day look like in the metaverse.

In all its shades, green evokes nature, hope, and progress. It calls to mind lush forests and verdant meadows, symbols of renewal and growth. It is sometimes complemented with touches of yellow, brown, or, more daringly, red. Even so, green stands alone, vibrant and alive. A symbol of serendipity, the sight of these works bodes well, inspiring a sense of well-being and infinite possibilities.

What does music look like? Although many artists throughout the history of art have drawn directly from this intangible creative expression to create their works, capturing the sentimental and rhythmic notions of music is a challenge. Digital art offers a unique opportunity to rectify this dilemma, as artists incorporate the sound waves and decibels of music directly into the code they use to create generative artworks. Elsewhere, artists are taking the creative spirit of music and rendering it directly into figurative works, conveying the emotional magic that music can create.

It has become more and more obvious that our planet has an expiration date. The only solution is for people to come together and change the way they live and treat their environement. Waste management and upcycling is no longer a choice but a necessity. Through the use of digital tools, artists create environments that move us and speak to our emotions in order to build a sense of urgency. Their artworks show us either what our world would look like if we don't do anything or they imagine places where nature is magnified because we took care of it. These artworks invite us to take immediate measures to solve environmental issues before it is too late. The clock is ticking and artists are here to remind us of this fact.

"Minimalist Marvels" is a carefully selected collection that explores the beauty of simplicity and the power of singular objects. In the digital age, where visual clutter often overwhelms our senses, these works of art capture the essence of minimalism. Each piece in this collection captures a moment of pure clarity, where the absence of intricate detail amplifies the impact of a solitary object.

By eliminating the superfluous, this selection of artists encourage us to appreciate the purity of form, the elegance of line and the harmony of colour. This collection acts as a place of respite, inviting viewers to rediscover the wonders that exist in the minimal, the subtle and the essentially elemental.

Biomimetics is the study and invention of synthetic materials or objects that take inspiration from natural (or biological) forms and movements. Today, this approach is widely used in design. In this selection, our digital artists, who often come from deisgn backgrounds and are heavily inspired by the world around them, also demonstrate an interest in biomimetics. Whether the artist takes inspiration from real-life flora and fauna to imagine a cyborg flower, digitise nature as a form of archiving and remembrance, or embed cities and gardens into rock formations, this body of work demonstrates the relationships between biological and natural forms, and technological innovation in art.

This collection centres work that takes dreams as its primary root of inspiration. Whether the artists attempt to visually depict what a dream could look or feel like, or else create their pieces based on a dream they once had, the infinite possibilities in digital art lend well to the ephemeral and intangible quality of a dream.

In this collection of works, artists take the themes of wild life and animals as their central focus, but explore this subject matter with differing techniques and approaches. There are mulitude of ways an artist can approach this topic, whether it is through humour and whimsy, as in the works of Gavin Shapiro or Ghost, or to address centuries old astrological symbols. Of course, the question of the preservation of endangered wild life and the environment also often comes into play, as digital artists create these works as a message and reminder to look after other living species around us, and concretise their memory on the internet or blockchain.
