Fakewhale STUDIO: “Structural Gradients”, at TICKTACK Cinema Program, 2025

We are excited to present "Structural Gradients", our first video work, which will be part of the TICK TACK CINEMA program.
This initiative transforms the facade of the TICK TACK space into a cinematic venue, projecting video works that will be publicly visible to passersby and accessible online via live streaming.
Structural Gradients emerges in a historical moment marked by the rise of advanced video generation models, positioning itself as one of the early explorations in this field.
The project showcases a seamless video flow where a series of outputs and previously unpublished studio works are orchestrated through sequential transitions and passage planes, all regulated by AI algorithms.
The result is a cohesive visual experience, where each element fluidly integrates, while also suggesting a formal continuum of transformationsopen to perpetual evolution and refinement.
The screening at TICK TACK also features works by Kevin Abosch, Olga Fedorova, and Scerbo.
SYNTHETIC PROGRAM will be showcased daily from sunset to sunrise (CET), presented live outside TICK TACK’s exhibition space at Mechelsesteenweg 247, 2018 Antwerp, and accessible digitally via the livestream on TICK TACK’s website.

Fakewhale STUDIO: “GENERATIVE ITEMS”, BOOK PRESENTATION

We are pleased to announce the latest release from Fakewhale Studio, published by PRNTD, titled "GENERATIVE ITEMS." This project brings together the work of fifteen artists, including Camille Rouzaud, Christian Holze, Emmanuel Van Der Auwera, Erris Huigens, Huber Huber, Jorge Isla, Léo Fourdrinier, Lolo & Sosaku, Manor Grunewald, Manuel Fois, Mathias Pöschl, Mit Borrás, Oliver Hull, Patrick Bérubé, and Sasha Sime and Fakewhale STUDIO.
In "GENERATIVE ITEMS," we explore the evolving dialogue between digital photography and generative artificial intelligence, opening new aesthetic and conceptual frontiers. Each artist contributed 5-6 photographs from their personal body of work, which were then processed by an algorithm designed to generate outputs inspired by the visual styles of the original pieces. This algorithm interprets each artist's unique style in a guided manner, creating a bridge between human creativity and computational interpretation.

Baxter and Fakewhale Studio: Synergy between Digital Art and Design in the 2024 Mood Book

The collaboration between Baxter and Fakewhale Studio represents a perfect balance of design, digital art, and technological innovation, culminating in the release of the 2024 Mood Book, a limited-edition catalog.
This project goes beyond a simple catalog, presenting itself as a complex work of art that blends photography, technology, and design, creating a unique visual narrative for each Baxter product. Every chapter is enriched with carefully curated images, the result of cutting-edge experimental and digital photographic techniques.
Fakewhale Studio contributes to the project with the piece “Untitled #53,” a digital artwork that reflects the integration of artificial intelligence in the creative process.
Through algorithmic analysis of reference images, combined with generative synthesis, the piece explores new formal configurations while maintaining a constant dialogue with the original visual models. The result is an object that challenges conventional categories, combining contrasting materials like reflective panels and farics, and marked by structural complexity that questions the balance between aesthetics and functionality.
As Baxter highlights, “each recipient of the book also receives a digital certificate of authenticity created by FW Studio, inspired by the theme of reflection: a digital sculpture that explores the boundaries between reality and dream, and that, starting from the quote engraved on the elastic band that seals the volume, seeks to enclose the mystery and beauty of what you hold in your hands.” This certificate becomes not only a digital extension of the artwork but also a symbol of Baxter’s continued commitment to innovation and to surprising its audience.
