Jim Naughten’sBiophilia unveils a luminous liminality—a space where the essence of life flickers between the real and the imagined.
The colors employed are warm against ethereal foggy skies, and bring the unique creatures into focus.
Each creature, rendered in spectral hues, appears as a guardian of nature’s unseen spirit, their forms pulsating with dreamlike vitality. These are not animals as we know them; they are archetypes, emissaries of a deeper, unfathomable wilderness.
Through pale iridescent palettes and a fascinating digital alchemy, Naughten conjures animals that exist beyond our fractured world—a brief glimpse of nature’s soul refracted through a visionary lens.

The electric blues and molten gold colors vibrate with uplifting energy, as if infused with inspiring messages from a beautiful harmony of existence.
Biophilia encourages us to look through this fascinating veil, to celebrate the sacred thread that connects us to the wild. In Naughten’s creatures, we see echoes of ourselves: radiant, resilient, and yearning for a joyful reunion with the infinite.
“’Biophilia’, an AI art project, transcends the boundaries of reality to paint fictional images of wildlife, illuminating the expanding gulf between humanity and the natural world. Through the fusion of human creativity and machine learning, the artwork weaves hallucinations into the fabric of surreal, fictional animal portraits.
They act as visual metaphors which question our fractured relationship with the wild world. Through biophilia, we are attracted to the animal in art, and recognise and continue to feel affinity through our shared history, albeit through an increasingly distance and distorted, man-made lens.”
