Glitch art pioneer Dawnia Darkstone casts an illusion of mixed media in her debut print edition.

The blooms of colour within Digital Chemicals are achieved by a ‘chemical bending’ process. This method entails applying potent chemicals onto layered magazines, leaving the inks to amalgamate into chemical striations. The motifs form a base of an AI model, which Darkstone has trained to build upon the intricate patterns.

The print edition showcases the technical prowess of her process, with Digital Chemicals highlighting a synthetic green and yellow output. These colours are translated into a silkscreened glow-in-the-dark ink layer against a polychromatic palette.

Each print is paired with an animated NFT of the same artwork. Claiming instructions will be shared with collectors after launch.

Dawnia Darkstone also goes by Letsglitchit – and the name perfectly sums up her art. She truly is the queen of glitch. Since the early 2010s, she’s made all sorts of kaleidoscopic visuals by hacking different tools and programmes. “I’m always looking forward to new technologies to manipulate and break'', she says. Darkstone has glitched video, sound, print media and even embroidery. She also makes zines and paints with solvents to make trippy abstract graphics. Even though her work is incredibly varied, it always has a punk DIY early internet feel. In 2016, Darkstone also started using AI to create works – so it’s fair to say she’s always been ahead of her time.
