We are thrilled that our artwork 'Ascend' was exhibited and auctioned at Christie’s London in the Post-War and Contemporary Art Day Sale.
It was the only digital artwork featured in the sale and the first of its kind to be auctioned in a live event at @christiesinc
The piece is dynamic, automatically transitioning between day and night.
It was an honor to see it exhibited in London alongside some of the greatest artists of the past century.

Back from a magical few days at Baku Art Weekend!
It was a wonderful experience to exhibit our work, make new connections, and be part of Azerbaijan’s vibrant and growing arts scene.
Our artworks from The Wild Within, created by myself and @alicewexell, remain on view at the Museum of Modern Art in Baku until November 17.
A special thank you to Viola Raikel for her thoughtful curation and invitation to participate, Leyla Aliyeva for her vision and generous hospitality, @sam.morris.nyc for his great publicity work, and Emin Mammadov for his dedication to bringing it all together.
We’re incredibly grateful to the entire Baku Art Weekend and Museum of Modern Art teams, @experienceazerbaijan for their assistance at Sheki Palace, and especially Zeyneb Zakirli and everyone working behind the scenes to make it such a memorable experience!
Also, if you are in New York, you can see more of our work on display at @leilahellergallery in the Upper East Side.
In Paris, we also have works currently on view at Danae Gallery @danae.io

At the Baku Museum of Modern Art @museumofmodernart_baku , during Fly to Baku Art Weekend 2026 @bakuartweekend , Dutch-Canadian artist Ryan Koopmans @ryan.koopmans walked us through The Wild Within, his collaborative project with artist Alice Wexell @alicewexell .
Exploring the intersection of architecture, memory and digital imagination, the works blur the boundaries between the built and the natural world, questioning the permanence of the spaces we inhabit and the inevitable transformations brought by time.
In this conversation with Marie Claire Maison Arabia, Koopmans reflects on the relationship between human creation and nature’s capacity to reclaim it.

Introducing Resilience by @ryan.koopmans and @alicewexell from The Wild Within, presented in Heterotopies, our group show now on view at DANAE.
Extending in physical form the curation initiated by @marlenecorbun at the Hôtel Le Bristol Paris, Heterotopies brings together @benjaminbardou , @louispaulcaron , @ivonatau , @alecwaxman , @wen_new_atelier by @kaleniwamoto & @julien_silvano and The Wild Within by @ryan.koopmans & @alicewexell around a single question: how the relationships between place, image and presence are replayed, within these other spaces, at once real and suspended.
@ryan.koopmans and @alicewexell are Sweden-based artists whose collaborative practice explores the evolving relationship between architecture, nature, and time. Working together for the past fifteen years, they merge photography, motion, digital reconstruction, and sculptural form to reimagine built environments as living, transformative, and imaginative spaces. They are best known for The Wild Within, an acclaimed body of work that digitally revives historically significant and often abandoned interiors through the introduction of vegetation, light, and motion.
For Heterotopies, they present Resilience, set in the Grand Aley Hotel. Built in 1926 in the mountain town of Aley, outside Beirut, it was designed by an Italian architect working in Lebanon. Over the decades, the building witnessed periods of glamour and wartime service before falling silent amid regional conflict. Its walls, now layered with flaking and peeling paint, bear the traces of this history. Embracing the building's monochromatic green palette, the work evokes a spirit of resilience and endurance.

Ryan Koopmans and Alice Wexell met in New York in 2011 and began collaborating on projects around the world.
Now based in Stockholm, they travel internationally to photograph architecture in states of transition. Back in the studio, they refine the imagery, digitally sculpt vegetation, and introduce subtle movement, bringing abandoned spaces back to life.
Fifteen years after meeting, their debut New York solo exhibition brings their story full circle.

Walk With Me, 2026
Hand-cut glass tesserae, grout, mounted on Dibond and framed in oak
106.2 x 59.8 in. | 270 x 152 cm
by @ryan.koopmans & @alicewexell
'Walk With Me' marks a new evolution of The Wild Within, extending the project into glass, tile, and architectural materials.
The work depicts the interior of an abandoned sanatorium in Georgia, unfolding through a stairwell that once formed part of one of the Soviet Union’s most celebrated spa destinations.
The use of hand-cut glass and architectural materials creates a direct connection to the built environment from which the subject originates. At the same time, each individual tessera echoes the structure of a digital pixel, connecting the ancient material language of mosaic to the digitally native techniques involved in creating the work.
