A conversation with FazNova

FazNova’s practice examines the intersection of humanity and artificiality, presenting post-human entities imbued with distinctly human mental and emotional states. Through the exploration of embodied consciousness, the work engages with themes of vulnerability, chaos, and primal instinct, offering a meditation on identity and experience beyond the human frame. Recent works, including Fractured, turn inward exploring memory, pain, and the emotional residues that define and distort the human condition.

A conversation with 0x6032...a91c

Jay Toups is an internationally acclaimed adventure photographer and filmmaker. At nineteen he began pursuing photography and fully converted his vehicle into a home to seek inspiration while being immersed in nature. He has spent years traveling the continent and making a life of exploration and art on the road, heavily inspired by the dark and emotive nature of renaissance paintings and the way that color can tell stories. With a goal to create captivating art from some of the wildest places on earth, Jay has dedicated his life to making the beauty of nature accessible to all through the photos he brings to life. A strong believer in the way that humans and nature are inexplicably connected, Jay’s work becomes less about the places he photographs and more about the way those places make him feel; he hopes those feelings of connection translate to your own life and emotions.

Beautiful In-Betweens

There is a point in every journey where movement becomes meaning. When the act of traveling ceases to be about distance, and begins to reveal itself as an encounter with one’s own limits, physical, mental, spiritual.
