The panel talk “Redefining Value: The Intersection of Digital and Traditional Art” showed a panorama of accelerating ideas and opened-up the process of the pioneering thinking that will become tomorrow’s reality. The principal goal of the discussion was to provide an extensive perspective of the contemporary digital art market, whether they are art platforms, museums, art foundations or curators. The welcoming space of N°OW’HERE”, created as a space of exploration for the tech elite, leaders in the fields of art, fashion, entertainment, and business was boosting the creative and entrepreneurial networking on a higher scale.
Visionary strategies are impossible without talents. That’s why TAEX and N°OW’HERE” presented a selection of digital artworks by pioneering digital artists at N°OW’HERE” Club—a historic mansion dating back to 1875, renovated by the Italian firm Galante-Menichini. Right by the entrance at the reception area we presented two works by MAOTIK—MATERIA: Liquid and MATERIA: Gas—that reflect on the eternal and the natural. Continuing to ponder the nature we showed Neogene by  Alper Derinboğaz, who invites the audience to rethink our perception of time by contemplating the transformation of one of the oldest metals on Earth, bismuth.

Moving further to the Satoshi room, TAEX offered a moment of a digital escape created by Krista Kim. Her Continuum Collection is inspired by Buddhist philosophy and turns digital technologies at the service of mental health and mindfulness. Further to the next room, TAEX displayed the HOLO Collection by Oğuz Emre Bal, whose digital droplets represent a raw material of urban elements and an architectural equivalent to a cell in biology.

At the Conference room, where a panel talk took place, TAEX showed a brand new artwork SUPERNATURAL by MAOTIK, a generative art piece which allows the viewers to enter the mind of an artist at the precise moment — when the artist’s entire self is captured under the spell of creative forces. In the same room, the Face of Universe series by Tatsuru Arai was presented as well. It focuses on the physical nature of the Universe. Particularly interested in geometric structures and perception of sound, Arai offers a fundamental pillar that allows us to understand the true nature of the universe.
