Dream Walkers: Shadows, Visions, and Becoming
Spotlight on Issue #8 of WOW WORLD Magazine
In WOW WORLD Magazine Issue #8, Dream Walkers, we spotlight a constellation of creators who invite us to wander the fragile edges between waking and dreaming. These artists are not content to let AI generate surfaces; they use it to trace silence, to sculpt memory, to stage encounters with myth and transformation.
Their work does not offer escape. It offers resonance—landscapes of stairs that climb into clouds, portraits veiled in fabric and shadow, wings built from struggle, and architectures that breathe like living companions. Here, presence is fragile yet fierce, intimate yet infinite.
This is not art of distraction.
This is art as encounter.
“Let these works guide you gently. Let them invite reflection.”
Issue #8 of WOW WORLD Magazine brings together an extraordinary chorus of voices shaping the symbolic future of AI art. From Belgrade, @lnk__design (Dragan Bojadzievski) blends surrealism and texture into Dream Walkers, crafting images that dissolve narrative into fragments of vision. In Austria, @desiree.daydreams (Désirée Arzić) unveils Neon Reverie, luminous portraits where geckos, butterflies, and tigers emerge from radiant fields of dream and kinship. In Belgium, @flowersindutch (Maarten Bloemen) presents Kuro Shiro, where stripes, signals, and scarlet rivers transform duality into living language. Rome-based @valeriotreviso (Valerio Treviso) threads The Invisible Fabric of the Algorithm, weaving code into textile, precision into poetics. And in Yokohama, @alwing.s (Toshie Kato) creates Wings of Memory, luminous structures born from discipline and resilience, carrying both grief and beauty.
Beyond these Spotlights, the issue expands into myth and resonance. @snilomisheze (Celina Jerzmanowska) channels Slavic folklore in Veils Between, ritual colliding with nightmare. @desiree.daydreams (Désirée Arzić) illuminates inner kinship in Neon Reverie, where animal companions emerge from light itself. @_mezdez (Matt Menendez) constructs Silvan Orb and Dream Chambers, embodied architectures that entangle structure with silence. Together with voices from across the globe, Issue #8 charts a new topography of AI creativity, where fabric becomes code, dream becomes architecture, and vision becomes memory.
More than twenty artists converge here, each offering work that feels intimate yet visionary. They are not simply producing images. They are creating landscapes of becoming, reminding us that to dream is also to walk, to cross, to change.
This is the frontier where art breathes back.
This is where dreams learn to walk.

Dragan Bojadzievski – Dream Walkers (Cover Artist)
With surrealist poise and symbolic intent,
Dragan Bojadzievski composes dreamscapes that linger between memory and myth. A multidisciplinary artist grounded in fine art and photography, his language is tactile yet ethereal—textures that invite both distance and intimacy.
In Dream Walkers, staircases rise through clouds, warriors carry bouquets of impossible blooms, and DNA twists into masks. The series is not narrative but fragmentary, like recalling a dream that dissolves upon waking. What remains is resonance: an echo more than an explanation.
Each image balances muted tones with sudden bursts of color. Clouds bleed into scarlet trees; skin becomes stone; solitude transforms into spectacle. Symbol becomes surface, surface becomes silence.
Dragan’s art does not explain—it suggests. It invites. It hovers at the threshold of recognition, where identity feels fragile, fluid, and unfinished.
His spotlight pieces don’t instruct; they reverberate. They walk softly in memory, whispering symbols that the viewer must carry away.

Désirée Arzić – Neon Reverie
With cinematic stillness and luminous precision,
Désirée Arzić creates portraits that dissolve the boundary between waking and dream. Trained as an art director, she weaves intuition and strategy into every frame—vision as design, design as story.
In Neon Reverie, figures close their eyes within radiant fields. Companions emerge—a gecko, a butterfly, a tiger—extensions of spirit made visible in neon light. These are not props but kin, fragile presences glowing with intimacy.
Her work pairs surrealism with tenderness. A butterfly resting on a shoulder becomes transcendence. A human and cheetah aligned in profile embody patience and velocity at once.
Arzić’s portraits feel less like representations than atmospheres—lived reveries where color becomes emotion and stillness becomes kinship.
Her spotlight whispers in gradients: solitude glowing softly, technology collaborating in intimacy, memory lingering like light against skin.

Maarten Bloemen – Kuro Shiro
With graphic austerity and ritual intensity,
Maarten Bloemen transforms stripes into language, pattern into presence. His practice balances digital generation with manual refinement, making geometry speak with symbolic weight.
In Kuro Shiro, guardians emerge cloaked in black-and-white geometries. Stripes scar their bodies, helmets blaze like coded warnings, rivers of red fracture landscapes. This is not harmony—it is collision.
The work thrives on duality. Black and white. Silence and signal. Tradition and futurism. Each figure becomes vessel, each landscape inscription, as if geology itself had been rewritten by interference.
Bloemen’s imagery resists resolution. It inhabits flux, showing identity as something marked, transformed, unsettled.
His spotlight pieces are not about beauty as balance but beauty as tension—a language spoken in contrast, carved into stone and skin.
Valerio Treviso – The Invisible Fabric of the Algorithm | Rome, Italy | @valeriotreviso
Valerio Treviso – The Invisible Fabric of the Algorithm
With design precision and poetic cadence,
Valerio Treviso treats code as textile, prompts as stitches. His portraits shimmer between concealment and revelation, weaving culture, geometry, and memory into living fabric.
In The Invisible Fabric of the Algorithm, figures appear wrapped in surfaces that glow, fracture, and breathe. Fabric shields yet exposes, shadows armor yet soften. The algorithm is not hidden but visible, its weave luminous and fragile.
Works like Hidden Radiance cloak the subject in sequined veils, texture itself becoming coded language. Obsidian Glow veils the figure in sheen and shadow, intimacy balanced against armor.
Treviso’s art refuses spectacle. It builds resonance—precision softened into tenderness, geometry bent into poetry.
His spotlight whispers in threads: each word intentional, each image woven from code and care.
Toshie Kato – Wings of Memory | Yokohama, Japan | @alwing.s
Toshie Kato – Wings of Memory
With meditative rigor and luminous restraint,
Toshie Kato transforms personal struggle into angelic equilibrium. A former semiconductor engineer, his art carries the discipline of precision while unfolding into visual prayer.
In Wings of Memory, angelic forms unfurl not as decoration but as vessels for grief, resilience, and hope. Light bends into feathers, ink fractures into scars, silence glows like equilibrium.
Light Wings flares golden strands through vaulted stillness. Wings of Equilibrium erupts in red and ash, scarred yet sovereign. Each piece balances fragility with power, fracture with radiance.
Kato’s wings are not for flight but for becoming. They are structures that hold pain, transform survival into presence, and insist that beauty is plural, scarred, enduring.
His spotlight whispers in silence—wings not lifting but carrying, memory held as luminous form.
