Surrealism: An Ideal Base for the Integration of Blockchain and AI
Exquisite Workers, a community within the digital art world, champions itself as a potent force. Since 2020, its members have been examining the intersection of surrealism and innovation, fostering collective creativity within the metaverse. They've partnered with prestigious organizations such as the Picasso Museum, digital fashion studio The Fabricant, the Seattle NFT Museum, and many other influential industry figures.
The direction of AI Surrealism is guided by digital artists Anna Dart and Roger Haus. This genre of modern art exhibits the merger of human and machine creativity, dramatically extending the scope of what's possible for creators.

AI Surrealism s bestowing on artists the much-coveted gift of absolute freedom. It supports the manifestation of 'unfiltered' creativity, accompanied by an element of the unexpected. With the aid of AI capabilities, artists can veer away from conventional tools and techniques to delve into the realm of boundless imagination.
What was once a time-consuming endeavor of reflection and artistic expression, such as the peculiar practice of falling asleep while clutching an egg only to wake up on the edge of slumber when it inevitably falls, can now be brought to life by machinesRoger Haus notes
At the AI Surrealism exhibition, Superchief Gallery NFT and Exquisite Workers invited visitors on a fantastical voyage into the creative psyche, urging them to ponder the possibilities AI could introduce to the artistic realm. They encouraged guests to speculate on how past surrealists might have harnessed the power of virtual reality. This event, according to the organizers, could prompt artists and observers alike to reflect anew on the state of modern art, while preparing them for an inevitable future where creativity seamlessly intertwines with artificial intelligence.
