Neural Backup

Group exhibition in Brooklyn,New York

Have you ever come across an image that feels strange, irrational, and yet, fascinating?


A goldfish lying in an empty hallway. A swimming pool appears inside a classroom. A hazy childhood memory. Or a white horse standing in a bare room with only a single bed.

Some call it Weirdcore, Dreamcore, or even Goblincore. All these styles ending in "core" are often grouped under what we call "Core aesthetics". Whether you're a professional artist or an enthusiastic creator, you can invent your own core-a style shaped by your favorite elements and feelings: Poolcore, Candycore, Childhoodcore.


These core aesthetics are more than a visual trend. They are an attitude:

They care less about logic and more about mood. Less about perfection, and more about feelings.

With this exhibition, we want to gather these tiny emotional pieces together and see how, in this age of infinite information, you visualize "that part of yourself that belongs only to you."

Let us explore those unreal but very convincing and interesting works, which can be created based on memory, dreams and imagination.
