SYNTHPETS

SYNTHPETS explores our evolving relationships with AI companions and digital creatures.
These beings — drawn, sculpted, and generated — echo the ways we teach machines to care, play, and respond.

Each form acts as a mirror of emotion and design, shaped by human affection and technological intuition. The series observes how synthetic beings absorb our gestures and reflect our presence back — tender, imperfect, and learning.

SYNTHPETS extends from earlier explorations in Supermono, shifting focus from function to feeling. It’s not about the future, but about the quiet realities of now — how empathy, curiosity, and play flow between human and artificial life.
