SHILLR Twitter Spaces 🎙️
“Why Art?” 🖼️ 🤔 w/ SHILLR feat. Daniel Koeth:
On “Why Art?” with SHILLR, we had a POWERFUL chat w/ Daniel Koeth surrounding his journey in both art and life.
This isn't Daniel's 1st bear market, and his perspective makes that abundantly clear:
“That's how we all became creative because creativity was this, this vehicle to, you know, express how we feel and like emote. And in a bear market, without a doubt, there's more space to do that, and there's more solitude to do that.” - Daniel Koeth, Why Art? w/ SHILLR.

“PROMPT3D” 🤖 w/ SHILLR feat. Amber Vittoria:
On PROMPT3D, we had a super interesting chat with artist Amber Vittoria, who is experimenting with AI based on her hand-painted works. This is what she had to say about who inspired her to get into using AI:
“Claire Silver was probably one of the first artists that I saw use AI fully. She was taking AI and then manipulating it or digitally painting on top of it and then eventually I believe everything is straight AI.
I've been following her now for a few years and it was really interesting to see what she came up with and like the visual language that she had through AI and I was like, wow, these all are all like unmistakably her, but she's using AI and that's really hard to pull off a visual style in general.” - Amber Vittoria, PROMPT3D w/ SHILLR.

Bernardo’s Art Café: From the Archives ☕️
art gm #70 - Rupture: Intricate & uncomfortable truths ꩜
This week, we showcase an art gm artist , who has not yet been featured on the SHILLR Weekly Recap as part of Bernardo’s Art Café ‘From the Archives’. The first artist is Rupture.
Rupture is an artist who creates intricate drawings using fineliner pens on handmade washi paper to highlight the uncomfortable truths of life. Rupture's work often takes multiple months to complete, filling their creations with intense patterns & details.
I vibe with Rupture's art because it calls on me to get lost within the intricacy & I admire their ability to pack so much style & nuance into their work. We are all just made up of atoms and collectively interconnected - Rupture's art feels like a visualization of this notion.
A great entry into Rupture's art is through 'THE WITNESS' (OpenSea link). A piece about finding stillness in chaos. A witness sits & watches frenzied activity unfold before them, yet they remain unfazed. I couldn't think of a more beautiful reminder to simply observe.
If I had unlimited ETH I would cop 'SPECTACLE' (SuperRare link). It's a collection of individual works of art that complete the full story. The Chamber of Deception is in session, higher beings weigh in from above and various scenes of chaos shine brightly in the back.
You should scope out Rupture's art because the intricate nature of their work is such an accurate visual reflection of the intricacy of the human experience. Rupture provides color & clarity through detail in order to put the uncomfortable truths of humanity on full display.
If you're interested in checking out other artists I've featured or would like to recommend someone I should look into, head over to the below thread. Thanks for reading! ☕️ ✨ 💚
