Marcus Wallinder (aka Meanwhile In Nowhere), a minimalist graphic artist with a background in photography and graphic design, creates visually compelling works by merging AI technology with traditional digital techniques. Drawing from influences such as minimalism, surrealism, metaphysics, geometric abstraction, and shifting cultural zeitgeists of both past and present, Marcus crafts a distinct and evolving visual language.

By integrating generative AI into his creative process, Marcus introduces an element of unpredictability that mirrors his fascination with the intersection of technology and the unknown. Much like surrealist artists use the subconscious to unlock creativity, Marcus employs ”promptography”—a fusion of AI-driven imagery and human intent—to tap into a collective digital unconscious.

Through his compositions, Marcus urges us to reflect on the human condition, highlighting that the future of art will be shaped by the delicate co-dependence between human imagination and the boundless potential of AI. His works are not only visual reflections but also meditations on how we navigate the unpredictable landscapes of both our inner and outer worlds. For Marcus, AI tools are merely a means to an end, serving as creative instruments that enable him to bring his artistic vision to life rather than defining the final outcome.
