Nude Abstract #26

Ayla 🌊

Canvas III: Yorkshire Farm

Presenting the Miami Beach Art Collection, a collection of NTFs inspired by three powerful themes that speak to Playboy’s past, present, and future: Miami, crypto-currency, and the iconic Playboy Rabbit Head logo, which has served as a source of inspiration for artists for nearly 70 years. An expanded version of a digital exhibit previewed to thousands of Crypto enthusiasts at BTC 2021 Miami, the collection features original works by Ayla El-Moussa, REK0DE, Jon Noorlander and MBSJQ, and an original heritage photograph unearthed from the Playboy Archives, featuring a Playboy Bunny pictured water-skiing outside of the Miami Playboy Club in 1970, courtesy of the Playboy Archives. The Miami Beach Art Collection is Playboy’s first curation partnership with SuperRare.


Ride the Wave by Playboy x Ayla El-Moussa

This series, titled "Integration of Opposites," emerges as a visual philosophy that delves deep into an odyssey of contrasts — from form vs abstraction, male vs female, body vs mind, life vs death, and day vs night. Each piece in this series serves as an investigation to try and understand the balance of dualities: a reminder that life doesn’t work in absolutes but in the delicate interplay between Yin and Yang.

'Opus 1' starts the journey and acts as a blueprint for the series. Reminiscent of an hourglass, this piece hints at the cyclical nature of time and our place in the universe. Employing 24-carat gold to evoke the warmth of the sun (symbolizing body and heart) and silver, the ethereal metal of the moon (representing mind and subconscious), the inverted triangle, an ancient alchemical signifier of femininity, holds within it the flesh form of the body (gold).  Below, the triangle encompasses an abstracted form, leading us to dive into our subconscious minds (silver). These geometric shapes are set against a backdrop of two distinct colors, yet if you look closely, there are many layers to uncover; you need only sit, contemplate, and discover the messages within. 

Opus 1

Nude Abstract #6

Fire and water, two elements that sculpt the planet we exist on. 
With the curves of her body creating a canyon of desire, she flows like water able to sustain all life while at her core rests a fire, awaiting its spark.When she ignites, she rises from the ashes and what burns can prevail throughout eternity.

Artists Catalogue #11/14

Allegorical Figure of Day & Night is my first reactive piece. It follows the earth's pattern and will transition at sunset and sunrise from its day form to night form based on geolocation.  
The cyclical pattern of the day transforming into night and back is coded into our existence. Our physical state, mental state and the countless processes our bodies carry out are all governed by nature’s circadian rhythms.  

The sun rising (the day) represents new life and possibilities for the conscience mind.  
As day gives way to night with its all-enveloping darkness, the symbolism transitions into a more introspective calm. The conscious mind prepares to rest while the subconscious awakens in our dreams—a delicate play of yin and yang. As light beckons to life and death invites everlasting darkness, the two join together to create a state of equilibrium.  

Allegorical Figure of Day & Night is synchronized to transform with the rising and setting of the sun, representing these natural shifts that govern so much in our lives. It is a reminder that we run not on our manufactured clocks but on nature's time, and we need to respect it.

"The surface of the earth is the shore of the cosmic ocean. Some part of our being knows this is where we came from. We long to return, and we can, because the cosmos is also within us. We are a way for the cosmos to know itself." —Carl Sagan

Foundation

Immersing myself in an old scene with new details, the painted muse's final act sparks more questions than answers. Through the fusion of photography and digital paint, I create the illusion of a marble statue, immortalizing my creativity in a piece that resonates with the timeless allure of ancient beauty.

Scene 3

Photograph, Digitally Hand Painted with Oil

Scene 1 is my tribute to the timeless beauty of classical and contemporary techniques. By hand painting over my self-portrait using digital paints, I blended traditional mediums with modern technology, drawing inspiration from the Romantic and Renaissance painters to create my painted muse.

I hope that she captivates and inspires all who view her.

Dame de La Mer

Drawing from the art of ancient Egypt, my pose  is reminiscent of sculptures that grace the walls of pharaoh's tombs.
Central to its design is the inverted triangle, an alchemical sign denoting both water and the divine feminine.

By day, the waves of the ocean flow through, a testament to the pulse of natures ebb and flow.
At night, the fire reveals our inner desires and the very anatomy we all collectively have beneath our surface.

A solitary female stands in a vibrant lush landscape, her expectant gaze fixed on the horizon, symbolizing our collective anticipation of the future. The world she surveys is an intriguing mix of clarity and obscurity, with a sky seamlessly merging the ocean's depth and the cloud's drift; is she waking from a dream?
The pervasive mist serves as a metaphor for an enigmatic yet undeniable future and the only way is forward.

Prelude To Integration: The Seven Stages

A Digital Alchemy; A Journey of Transformation

Prelude To Integration: The Seven Stages is Ayla El-Moussa’s latest collection, featuring seven unique 1/1 artworks. Developed over several months, this series  includes Ayla's first integration of embellished works on paper. For the first time, Ayla will offer individually painted prints, each distinguished by color that serve as symbolic refrence to the Seven Stages of Alchemy. These stages draw upon an ancient philosophy aimed at achieving spiritual enlightenment by metaphorically transforming base metals into gold.

The Seven Stages:
1. Calcination (Black)
Process: Burn the substance to ashes.
Psychological: Let go of ego and materialistic focus.
2. Dissolution (White)
Process: Dissolve the ashes in water.
Psychological: Explore the unconscious to reveal the hidden self.
3. Separation (Red)
Process: Filter out impurities.
Psychological: Assess and learn from personal flaws and strengths.
4. Conjunction (Yellow)
Process: Combine purified elements.
Psychological: Integrate different aspects of the self, discovering authenticity.
5. Fermentation (Green)
Process: Break down substances with microbes.
Psychological: Embrace life's trials to foster growth.
6. Distillation (Blue)
Process: Evaporate and condense to purify further.
Psychological: Refine the spirit, moving past the ego.
7. Coagulation (Purple)
Process: Solidify the purified substance.
Psychological: Achieve an enlightened state, transcending limitations.

Open Your Eyes & See: A Lone Bird 

Melding traditional photography with digital brushwork.

This artwork evolves from day into night based on your timezone. Exclusively minted on its own site: 
https://stacks.transientlabs.xyz/natural-forms

This piece is a compilation of my fascination with ancient Egypt, alchemy & symbolism, from the hieratic posing, to the outline of the figures in stone, triangles, elements of fire, water, the mind & the golden ratio.

By day, the artwork embodies simplicity, serving as my meditative anchor with waves flowing through the symbol. Yet, it hints at the depths of the subconscious that will be explored as night arrives.

Night falls, fire illuminates  the underlying bones & architecture of the piece, adding a deeper inquiry both psychological & physical. What lies below the surface? Why is it that at night we are compelled to confront our subconscious, fears, desires, & emotions more deeply?

Within the concept of this piece, I delve into the meanings of the inverted triangle. In Alchemy, it stands for water, yet it also signifies the divine feminine. This duality finds depth in my work & is further explored in this short story. https://www.aylaelmoussa.com/the-tale-of-a-symbol
