Refik Anadol Headlines 'In Resonance' at Scorpios Curated by HOFA Gallery

The Encounters 'In Resonance' program is an unprecedented cultural initiative
showcasing leading generative artists and musicians. It presents curated art
installations, bespoke music compositions, live performances, and exclusive
digital art drops at Scorpios, Mykonos (13 July - 3 September). Renowned
artist Refik Anadol will launch an artwork collaboration with Brazil's
Yawanawa Indigenous communities of Aldeia Sagrada and Nova Esperança,
donating his full share of the collection's sales directly to the Yawanawa
community.

LONDON, ENGLAND / ACCESSWIRE / June 22, 2023 / Art and tech pioneers HOFA and
Scorpios, renowned Mykonos-based creative gathering place, partner for 'In
Resonance', an exploratory art, music and culture program showcasing the
interplay between contemporary art and music.

'In Resonance' is the inaugural edition of Scorpios Encounters, a newly
launched platform for cultural experimentation, which will run during peak
summer from 13 July until 3 September 2023. For 7 weeks, the eminently
well-curated program will feature captivating installations by prominent
generative artists, high-profile music collaborations, live musical
performances, and exclusive digital art drops.

HOFA Co-founder Elio D'Anna explains, "In Resonance is a multidisciplinary
program which brings leading AI artists and renowned musicians together to
explore the profound connections between art and music as reflections,
complements and natural evolutions of each other."

Headlining 'In Resonance' is the phenomenal Turkish-American media artist and
director Refik Anadol. Renowned for his mesmerising immersive and interactive
works, Anadol's creative endeavours have achieved global acclaim with digital
collectible sales exceeding $30 million, amid notable collaborations with
esteemed institutions like Sotheby's Hong Kong and MOMA New York.

At Scorpios, Anadol will unveil his latest collection of artworks, co-created
with the Yawanawa Indigenous communities of Aldeia Sagrada and Nova Esperança
from Brazil (13 - 14 July) to reflect the dynamic interrelationship between
Yawanawa culture and the Brazilian Amazon. Facilitated by Impact One as part
of their "Possible Futures" program, this collaboration will explore the deep
connections between human consciousness and nature with Anadol and Impact One
donating their share of proceeds towards funding long-term initiatives for the
protection of Yawanawa heritage.

Also headlining 'In Resonance' is trailblazing female AI artist Dr. Ivona Tau,
renowned for her experimental photography and motion paintings created using
GAN models trained on rich photographic data. Tau's new works, developed in
collaboration with Jean Claude Ades, maestro of eclectic dancefloor rhythms,
is based on light data collected in the island of Delos and is billed to go
live during the second set (23 - 24 July) of the summer-long program.

French biological generative artist and musician Agoria will also present a
new artwork created through the algorithmic fusion of sunset data captured at
Scorpios, Mykonos (24 - 25 Aug), while New Zealander Jesse Woolston will
release new AI artworks created around the theme of knowledge, spiritual
beliefs and the power of AI in the fight against climate change (31 Aug - 1
Sept).

Other feature artists and musicians include Hugo Johnson, the hypnotic visual
storyteller, who alongside Bedouin, known for their Middle Eastern and Western
sound fusions, will present their collaborative masterpiece, Zorba, which
reimagines extreme weather phenomena using geographic data.

Australian light sculptor Jason Sims, in collaboration with musical protégé
of meditative soundscapes Satori, will immerse viewers in a light-mediated
exploration of natural systems (10 - 11 August), while the pioneering Azeri
new media artist Orkhan, along with the music director of Scorpios Mykonos
Lannka, will present a new work in the Relic series exploring eastern cultural
heritage and tapestries through physical data sculptures and paintings (4 - 5
August).

Scorpios Co-Founder and President, Thomas Heyne, believes the new program will
resonate with Scorpios' growing community. He says, "Charting new creative
territory is what we do at Scorpios and our vision for 'In Resonance' is to
create a more multidimensional and fulfilling experience for artists and our
community."
