ORIGINS, IMPERFECTIONS AND INTERSECTIONS
Artifakt by Medusa
Crafted by Spanish artist Medusa, Artifakt is a generative exploration of intersections: of shape and line, of artificial and organic, of past and future.
Drawing inspiration from his childhood memory of Proferio Grossi’s photolithograph, Medusa’s code-based works evoke the raw energy of early constructivism.
In 300 unique pieces, the imperfections of the hand-drawn and the precision of the machine converge, honoring tradition while pushing boundaries.

THE COLLECTOR’S BOOK
“I think that somehow our brain tries to identify the unknown. In a natural way, it transforms abstract things into something familiar to us. And here is where the magic resides.”
Medusa
EARLY 20TH CENTURY SPIRIT
A MOVEMENT REDISCOVERY
Artifakt captures the bold essence of constructivism and avant-garde origins through simple, striking shapes that echo the vision of early modernists. Hand-drawn textures and subtle pencil-like quirks breathe life into the digital canvas, embracing the beauty of the imperfect. As figures dance and merge, new languages of form emerge, bridging time and media to create a fresh interpretation of these pioneering movements.
PALETTES AS LEGACY
Each color palette within the collection pays homage to a master of constructivism: from the bold geometry of El Lissitzky to the radical vision of Rodchenko. These palettes act as living tributes, each piece resonating with the spirit of its namesake. Among them, three special editions - Origins, Imperfections, and Intersections - offer collectors a glimpse into the shifting interplay of color and form.
