ABOUT
THE PROJECT
FVTVRIST ART is a curatorial platform and research-driven network dedicated to identifying and positioning artists who are actively shaping the visual language of the future.
We select and curate artists whose practices demonstrate conceptual rigor, cultural urgency, and a distinct formal language, voices that actively construct the future of visual culture. We are interested in creators who have something at stake, who articulate position, tension, and vision through their work.
Our curatorial focus extends across contemporary art, fashion, design, cinema, and music. The artists we choose become part of an evolving international constellation: a carefully built archive of names we believe will define the next chapter of cultural production.
Selected creators gain access to FVTVRIST’s global network of collectors, institutions, brands, and collaborators. Works may be featured editorially, included in curated presentations, or considered for special commissions in dialogue with our partners.
FVTVRIST ART serves as both an archive and a platform for creators-from every background, region and religion-to showcase their work worldwide.
We welcome submissions from artists working across mediums, including video, digital practices, installation, photography, performance, illustration, and experimental formats. We are particularly attentive to those who challenge form, question systems, and propose new visual grammars for a rapidly transforming world.
OUR MISSION
FVTVRIST ART exists to identify and position artists whose work contributes meaningfully to the evolving language of contemporary culture. We are committed to recognizing practices that demonstrate intellectual depth, formal precision, and a clear awareness of their historical and social context.
FVTVRIST ART promotes Open Calls to discover talent in specific regions or explore thematic subjects. Through carefully structured Open Calls, we research specific geographies and thematic inquiries. Each selection process is reviewed by an international curatorial circle, ensuring rigorous evaluation and a multiplicity of perspectives. These initiatives are not volume-driven; they are research-driven and designed to surface voices that expand discourse and redefine contemporary visual production.

Statement
This work belongs to Un cuchillo que no corta, an ongoing body of work I have developed over the past two years. The project unfolds as an intimate atlas of images suspended between beauty and the uncanny. It originates in recurrent nightmares, which I have recorded for years in brief notes kept in a notebook beside my bed. From these fragments, I construct a personal mythology that touches on time, death, spirituality, fear, and the human need to give form to what cannot be fully understood.
A dream first appears as an intense mental image, then fades into a few written words. To recover something of that lost image, I work with my own photographs, AI-generated imagery, images found online, and historical archives. Selected images are heavily cropped and digitally altered until they become photographic references, which I then translate through a slow, labour-intensive process: airbrushing in ink, then drawing in coloured pencil.
Are the birds gonna eat us, Mommy? takes its title from Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds (1963) and draws on a detail from a black-and-white photograph by Edgar Martins. The image resonated immediately with my recurrent nightmares about birds, in which familiar creatures become the source of an obscure, inexplicable threat.
