ABOUT ME:
Gabriel Böing (KÖI) is a multidisciplinary artist from São Paulo, Brazil, whose work explores the intersections of dreams, technology, and collective consciousness. With a background deeply rooted in internet culture and digital experimentation, KÖI’s practice spans generative art, 3D compositions, experimental film, live visuals, and immersive installations. His creative process serves as a conduit for self-discovery, translating ephemeral sensations—both waking and dreaming—into layered, evolving narratives.
Acting as a perceptual filter, KÖI interprets the world through a lens that oscillates between the macro and micro, finding harmony in chaos. He is a central figure in collaborative ecosystems, co-founding the Brazilian DAO S.E.E.D. and curating groundbreaking events like Chapter 1: Parallel Biome Hypothesis (2023) and S.E.E.D. x NEWTRO Buenos Aires (2025).
KÖI’s work has been exhibited globally, from Times Square (NYC) to Pavilhão da Bienal (São Paulo), Berlin to London, Montreal to Rio.
His work thrives in the tension between the organic and the synthetic, often questioning how technology reshapes human connection and ancestrality, connected with cyber shamanism and dreamy oniric narratives.
