Refik is a Turkish-American new media artist and designer whose work has recently been presented in The Museum of Modern Art.

At a time of heightened concern about how artificial intelligence impacts the creative industry, Refik is pioneering ways artists can utilize AI to their advantage.

According to his website, Refik’s art “addresses the challenges, and the possibilities, that ubiquitous computing has imposed on humanity, and what it means to be a human in the age of AI.” And as viewers, we’ve all been invited to contemplate the evolving concept of humanity in this technologically advanced era with him.

His art is having an impact. Despite not being active on a personal TikTok account, Refik’s garnered the attention of millions. There are currently over 30 million views of Refik’s art on TikTok as people share it organically.

His Instagram is also seeing success, where he shares images of his work on social.
