Creatures in a Bottle
A tall bottle stands centered on a table, containing a strange assembly of aquatic and reptilian forms that turns an ordinary still-life setup into a surreal scene. Ink-defined contours and collage elements sharpen the contrasts between transparent glass, glowing amber tones, and cool blue surroundings. The result is playful, slightly uncanny, and visually direct.
Tom Barnea
Tom Barnea (sometimes operating under the artistic handle MAYAMOTEK) is a contemporary digital artist specializing in vibrant, hypnotic photopaintings that translate a heightened personal perception of color and light. Bypassing traditional digital aesthetics, computers, and generative AI, Tom executes her entire creative process exclusively on a smartphone. She treats her photographs as physical and raw materials, layering and filtering them dozens of times to pull a hidden spectrum of luminous neon coloring. The resulting landscapes distort reality, manifesting how she uniquely encounters it.
