As our two astronauts flee an exploding gas planet in their escape pod, they are greeted by a celestial guardian who sucks them into a stargate portal.

The duo is hurled beyond time and space, and their seemingly disastrous mission is redeemed when they find themselves at their mission objective; an audience with THE supreme being.

CELESTIAL SENTINELS is a collection of unique pieces of art, representing what you might experience as you are greeted by the guardian and ride through the portal, each teleportation varying based on your lived experiences.

Dystopian Dreams

Dystopian Dreams is a collection of AI-imagined muses from another realm that possess the extraordinary ability to shape and influence dreams. As humans on Earth relentlessly push the boundaries of artificial intelligence and other new technology, they unknowingly tap into the vast knowledge and wisdom of a sacred realm, blurring the lines between artificial and authentic intelligence and endangering the multiverse.

Feeling a sense of urgency, these dream casters manifest themselves on Earth to identify, influence, and eliminate the dark forces responsible for the misuse of artificial intelligence, and in the process, come closer to uncovering the source of the darkness countering their light.

#### The Loops Story

My fascination with art and technology started at a young age. Photography, design, and digital art have always been gateways to create the universe in my imagination.

As the world of NFTs unfolded before me in late 2020, I found myself enamored by the concept of provenance through the blockchaina major cornerstone for the future of digital collectibles. I was head over high-tops for this new paradigm and I couldnt stop thinking about creating my own art collection.

A few weeks later, I was watching my nephew play with a toy I once cherished as a kid. This simple moment brought back memories of how free my imagination was back then. The toy's overlapping lines and vibrant colors became the foundation for the Loops style.

I've always been open to how technology can help me grow as an artist and how it fits into my overall process. Earlier this year I began incorporating AI into some of my work, training it to produce a similar style to my original loop paintings. Some of these outputs serve as one of the many layers that create each piece.

When it was time to share Loops with the world, I felt a mix of emotionsexcitement, but also fear of failure and rejection. Sharing your art is a big step for any artist, and this collection is my way of stepping into the arena and waving to everyone. My hope is that my story will be the inspiration someone else needs to put their own work out there. I'm so thankful for opportunity to share my work with all of you. Thank you for being a part of it.

Loops is a celebration of the twists and turns of the creative process and an invitation to tap into the well of youthful imagination that we all still have.

#### About Me


Im Michael Brooks Jr., a visual artist, designer, and photographer whose work explores the endless possibilities that emerge when art and technology converge. Loops, my genesis collection, marks my first foray into this new decentralized world as an artist. I'm deeply grateful for the incredible people who have supported and inspired me along the way, ykwya.

Loops by Michael Brooks Jr.

The Loops collection is a vibrant tribute to the immeasurable curiosity and imagination of being a kid. Integrating AI into my creative process swung open the door to a new dimension of self-expression. Each artwork tells its own story, capturing the magic of letting our mind wander in loops while turning our dreams into reality.
