Alyona Movko-Mägi is a mixed media and installation artist whose work explores the intersection of art, technology, and human experience.

In her recent work, Movko-Mägi has been exploring the aesthetics of artificial intelligence and its limitations in the field of art, as well as the concept of the "metahuman." She is interested in how the visualization of the forms found in nature can blur the boundaries between the explicit and the fictional, bringing the concept of the virtual world into a natural continuation of being. Movko-Mägi's art also reveals subliminal awkwardness and humor, reflecting the subconscious in a way that is both intriguing and unsettling.

Through her unique blend of engineering, music, and art, Movko-Mägi seeks to push the boundaries of what is possible in the field of mixed media and installation art, constantly searching for new ways to connect with her audience and reveal the hidden depths of the human experience.
