This collection explores the fragile threshold where bodies, objects, and hybrid beings escape the ground to inhabit a state of suspension. Defying the laws of gravity, they drift between sky and earth, never fully belonging to either. In this in-between, materiality is questioned: forms become lighter, uncertain, as if about to vanish or transform. Sometimes the experience is soothing, we can experience a sensation of release, of weight lifted. Other times it unsettles, evoking instability, vertigo, or the fear of falling.

Whether still, in a precarious equilibrium, or caught in a subtle rise or descent, these entities inhabit a mysterious limbo. The air itself becomes a stage for tension and wonder, where levitation reveals both the serenity of lightness and the disquiet of losing one’s anchor.

This collection unfolds around sparks of light — glimmers, reflections, and flashes — that transform perception and transfigure the ordinary. From glitter accentuating a detail to the shimmering surface of water at sunset, from suspended confetti to the dazzling play of diamonds, each work toys with the illusion of a world where light becomes substance.

Between magic and reality, these sparkles evoke both the wonder of fireworks and the fragility of memory, as if each reflection carried within it a fragment of a dream. Echoing Baudelaire’s “fugitive sparks” or Proust’s luminous visions, brilliance is never mere ornament: it is a total sensory experience.

Here, light does more than dazzle — it guides the eye toward the extraordinary, reminding us that within every shimmer lies a gateway to the imagination.

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.

This collection, “Reinventing Painting”, is a two-way street. On the one hand, it focuses on the ways in which digital art rethinks the very medium of painting, its tools, brushes, pigments, providing them with properties that are impossible in the real world: watercolors ripple, become three-dimensional, brushstrokes come alive and dance…

But these tools also question, transform and reinvent the heritage of the history of painting. Far from being disconnected from it, digital art questions and draws inspiration from its past, as art has done since Antiquity. Within this collection, the Mona Lisa smiles, Van Gogh’s clouds spiral and Friedrich's Wanderer transports himself into a futuristic city, while Benjamin Bardou attempts to reveal the infinite possibilities contained in the painting “through touches” of the late 19th century.

The vigor of youth is characterized by an insatiable curiosity, an unyielding spirit, and an unwavering passion for exploration. Young souls pulsate toward boundless possibilities The dynamic nature of youth manifests in the eagerness to embrace challenges, the resilience to bounce back from setbacks, and the relentless drive to carve out unique paths in the world. It is a time of exuberance where enthusiasm knows no bounds. Youth, in its essence, is a dynamic force, a kaleidoscope of vibrant aspirations, and a testament to the ceaseless vitality that defines the journey of growth and self-discovery.

Intimately connected to the body, textiles have long been associated with identity, touch, and forms of cultural transmission. Woven, embroidered, or assembled, they carry stories, gestures, and memories that span generations. The works brought together here extend this heritage by translating it into the digital realm. Through the simulation of materials, the exploration of texture, and the reinterpretation of patterns, the artists in this collection examine the continuity between ancestral traditions, and contemporary tools, reimagining the tactile dimension by suggesting sensations, surfaces, and reliefs through image and screen.

Living beings, real and dreamed of, are an inexhaustible source of inspiration that numeric tools are renewing. Digital artists blur the boundaries between the animal, the plant and the human, between reality and fantasy, while feeding on various inspirations such as mythology, video games, life sciences and science-fiction. Supernatural creatures, mystical monsters, fantastic animal and strange plants roam around this collection and ultimately confront us to our most humane questions : the fear of what’s different, the definition of beauty, the cycle of life and the passage of time.

"Digital artists often interrogate the question of mass, or objecthood, for file-based artworks that are almost always displayed on a 2D screen. Unlike painting or sculpture, capturing various dimensions or textures can be a challenge - especially for a work that cannot be handled, or even smelled, and can often only be experienced through the visual sense. How do artists overcome this sensorial barrier and create captivating artworks that appeal to all our senses, despite these challenges?

The collection, 'Playing with matter', explores the multitude facets in which digital artists tackle this conundrum. By bringing to life house hold objects and observing the interplay of these materials against each other and in motion, or by exploring abstract matter in various textures and forms, a true sense of objecthood or mass is conveyed. The works in this collection not only reveal the remarkable quality and accuracy of digital tools and software available to artists today, but also raises the question of how our digital, immaterial lives ressemble our 'IRL' material lives more and more each day."

Is gaming a sub-part of digital art? It is hard not to think so... Video games exist primarily in the digital realm, using the same tools, platforms, and technologies to create immersive experiences. Game designers and developers work together to craft worlds, characters, and experiences, much like filmmakers or painters would do. Video-games might even have a step ahead - they are, in essence, interactive.

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?

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?

"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.

As the foundation of urban space, the street is a fertile breeding ground for a wide variety of artistic expressions. Historically, street culture is above all that of counter-cultures, revolts and marginalized movements. But talking about the street is also a way of speaking to everyone: even the most sedentary people have to get around by walking the streets. Encounters, exchanges or simple journeys: the street is the place of civilization, and therefore of Humanity par excellence.

Today, we see more discussion and awareness around mental health, which is a positive advancement in our society. Often seen as an easy fix, mental health problems are actually complex, and can be difficult to understand and overcome. They cloud our heads, making us unable to see life clearly. We lose our objectivity and our judgement is tainted with thoughts and worries. Artists materialize what mental health problems can feel like through their visual experiences, in order to raise awareness and remind us how important it is to be mindful and to get help when necessary.

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.

This collection brings together artworks that explore how birds, symbols of freedom, communication, and fragility, are reimagined in the digital age. From colorful and lifelike renderings of plumage to abstract interpretations of flight, the collection highlights how technology reshapes our perception of nature’s most dynamic creatures.

Birds have long captured the human imagination as symbols of freedom, movement, and the boundless urge to explore new horizons. In this spirit, Digital Aviary extends that legacy into the present, where digital artists use technology to reimagine these living creatures.

This collection of artworks explores the captivating themes of desire and sensuality. With the use of multiple techniques and skills, artists delve into the intricacies of human desire, crafting visual narratives that evoke passion and sensuality. Whether through the subtle play of light and shadow, the graceful curves of the human form, or the intimate portrayal of moments charged with longing, these artworks invite viewers to contemplate the depth of human emotion. The exploration of desire and sensuality in art serves as a testament to the universal nature of these human experiences, providing a space for reflection and connection across diverse perspectives.

Glitch art emerges from technological error, transforming system failures and corrupted data into deliberate artistic language. By exposing the invisible structures behind digital images, artists reclaim accident and malfunction as spaces of creation rather than defects to be erased. What should remain hidden, altered pixels, corrupted data, and visual disruptions, becomes material for new visual narratives.

Yet glitch extends far beyond aesthetics. As theorists and artists have shown, error can also operate as a political gesture: a disruption of norms, identities, and systems that demand coherence and conformity. In revealing cracks within digital spaces, glitch art invites us to question the supposed neutrality of technology and the images that surround us daily. These works embrace instability, ambiguity, and transformation, suggesting that within disruption lies the possibility to rethink how bodies, identities, and realities are constructed. In the glitch, failure becomes fertile ground for imagining new ways of existing within and beyond our technological frameworks.

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.

Spirals are some of the oldest decorative patterns in the world, and have been a visual reference in most human visual cultures. It makes sense, given te spiral embodies an ancestral human concern : the concept of infinity. Digital art allows artists to bring the spiral into a new dimension : with a perfectly executed video loop, one can make a spiral spin literally forever. Or, with a generative algorithm, one can make a spiral whose movement can be cyclical, but whose visual characteristics shift continuously.

Digital tools therefore allow artists to reinvent this iconic pattern. Some turn it into a diabolical gear that embodies the anxiety induced by the principle of infinity, while others create a peaceful, perfect visual with ASMR ambiance, others still use the dynamic of its movement to induce powerful energy into colorful, sometimes psychedelic works. Some ultimately focus on the spiral’s geometry while others reintroduce it in natural environments, where existed long before human creativity seized it…

Fungi occupy a kingdom of their own, distinct from plants and animals, their significance extends far beyond biology. Mycelium networks embody interconnection and exchange, offering a metaphor for networks, community, and nature-made technologies. Mushrooms speak to transformation and regeneration, able to turn decay into fertile ground and life into renewal.

Fantastic Fungi brings together artworks that reimagine fungi from mushrooms to sprawling mycelial networks. From vibrant, iridescent mushrooms to humanoid shapes, these works transform the hidden, often overlooked structures of the fungal world into visible manifestations.

By highlighting these hidden structures and their cycles of growth and renewal, this collection invites viewers to reconsider familiar ideas of life, communication, and interconnections.

Conveying a message sometimes means aiming straight for the heart. The Light and Fun artworks all have in common a creative, dynamic and pleasing “je ne sais quoi”. What could be better than a feeling of joy and lightness when discovering an artist's work?

In this selection of works, artists use different digital tools to celebrate the power of community. Referencing animals, emojis or abstract forms, the idea of being together is magnified to show that humans are social beings and that they need others to thrive. Putting all of our strengths together makes us stronger and galvanises us to take action with regards to many issues such as the preservation of our planet, the inclusion of all peoples, sports.... We all have something to gain by being part of a group, so let's join together for a better future !

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?

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.

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.

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.

In this selection of works, artists show us the future that awaits us if we don't do anything to stop the climate change. Droughts, fires, floods, melting ice caps....these artworks are here to remind us that our actions have consequences and that we can't continue to live like we do. Employing digital tools, artists are able to immerse us in visions that are actually not far from a probable future. With their unlimited imagination, they teach us to take care of our environment and to look after what surround us, in order for our planet to thrive for many generations to come.

Flowers are a symbol and theme loved and recognised by all. They have been the primary subject matter of artists and movements for centuries, and digital artists are no exception. In the age of digital art, flowers are reinterpreted through code, 3D technologies, collage or more to explore the ways in which flowers occupy space in our lives, both IRL and in the metaverse.

This collection brings together two everyday companions: tea and coffee.The artists capture the warmth of a cup in the hands, a gesture that comforts both body and mind. They reflect on the boost of energy that helps us through fatigue, as well as the calm found in a quiet moment with an infusion. Between shared rituals and solitary pauses, these works show how tea and coffee are part of daily life.

From breakfast at home to friendly gatherings, tea and coffee connect people across cultures and generations. They turn simple habits into moments of comfort, energy, and connection.
