The works are paired with the word-based prompts that generated each image, bringing the artist’s thought process and creative intention to the fore.

Artist Bio
Sveta Bilyk was born in Ukraine. She is a 3D and VR artist currently based in Paris.
She explores how to keep the balance between past, present and future. The past for her means knowing your roots, respecting, preserving and multiplying the national heritage you belong to. The present is about the mental health of each of us and taking care of the inner world. She believes that we spread what we are full of. The future is the biggest challenge. But first of all we need to take care of nature and oceans around us. What future awaits us if we continue to consume irresponsibly and pollute the environment?
