Dzima Chuzhakou is a Belarusian artist and sculptor, participant of international exhibition projects in Minsk, Yerevan and Sao Paulo. He has been working under the creative pseudonym DSNT87 since 2000, starting with a passion for graffiti. Drawing on the street laid the foundation for his further creative activity. Experiments with abstraction, ornamentation and light projections in the urban environment helped to develop a unique recognizable style. Since 2020, he has been implementing all his accumulated experience on canvases, volumetric panels and in sculpture.

The basis for the video art presented in the DREAMSTORMING exposition was the CUTE TRANSFORMERS project. This series was made by Dima at the peak of the popularity of the NFT format with the help of AI and represents 222 digital pets.

Each pet has its own recognizable features, but these features are small and rather hide individuality than emphasize it. This correlates with the media culture of social networks and the modern beauty industry, built on the sale of pictures, conventional dreams/images and standardized faces.

The endless change of a cute image on the screen visualizes ethereal dreams, when a picture picked up somewhere in the media starts the process of mental chewing on this image.
