Curated by Nxt at Rosewood | August – October 2025
Three selected artists meet in a curation that allies colours, fashion, and abstraction

Three artworks Curated by Nxt just landed at Rosewood Amsterdam in this new curation, celebrating emerging digital artists from across the Netherlands and beyond. Found in the former Palace of Justice building, Rosewood Amsterdam merges luxury with social impact. Together with Nxt, it has implemented a three-part series of ‘innovative media’ exhibitions on a large-scale digital screen in the hotel lobby. 

In this exhibition, we invite guests to engage with artworks that explore the intersection of art and tech, reflect on contemporary themes, and push the boundaries of creative expression. For the second part of the series, Nxt and Rosewood have selected a bold curation of contrasting artworks that combine colours, fashion, and abstraction. The artworks embody the diversity of their creators, crossing figurative and abstract representation, various media and mesmerising images

Still from ‘Dreamspell’

 

Born in the Dominican Republic, Leonel Piccardo, known professionally as GLITCHOFMIND, is an Amsterdam-based 3D artist, digital designer, and photographer whose work explores themes of identity, self-expression, and futurism through digital narratives and editorial fashion.

During COVID-19, unable to photograph, Leonel started to explore digital tools and Web3, adopting the moniker GLITCHOFMIND. The name, a play on the words “peace of mind,” references his struggle with depression and ADHD diagnosis, where his imagination provided a safe space for expression and telling his story through fantastical allegories and visual narratives.  

Today, GLITCHOFMIND is recognised for his editorial approach to digital fashion and rich narratives that challenge conventional perceptions. Through a unique fusion of Afro-surrealism, design, and fashion, he continues to push the boundaries of artistic expression, crafting narratives that are both deeply personal and universally resonant.

His work has been featured in Vogue, NFTnow, and GlitchMagazine, exhibited at Miami Art Basel and London Fashion Week, and showcased globally. In 2024, he was named one of HUG 100 Artists to Watch. He continues to blend Afro-surrealism, design, and fashion, creating deeply personal and universally resonant narratives.

‘New Horizons’ at Rosewood Amsterdam

 

Daniel Samama (1982) creates generative animations that behave like living systems. There’s no beginning or end, just real-time processes driven by code, randomness, carefully tuned layers of feedback, and occasional sound or human interference.

His work lives in the tension between control and surrender. Through custom-built algorithms designed to grow, disrupt, repeat, or decay, he constructs environments where pixels seem to develop a will of their own. Sometimes, they are gently pulsing, sometimes eruptive and rhythmic. They are always temporary, never the same.

These pixel ecosystems live on digital screens or unfold in art installations, where volumetric layers of mesh introduce a second dimension of uncertainty. They are never fully in but never fully out of control.

‘Among Soft Gods’ at Rosewood Amsterdam

 

As an introvert with many emotions, dreams, and stories constantly spinning in her mind, creating art is the way through which she speaks most freely and eloquently. In her work, Riniifish portrays fantastical versions of otherworldly life, depicting parallel universes and extraterrestrial civilisations full of tiny, translucent creatures. She is best known for her ongoing series of ‘bugs’ who populate the ‘M7 Planet’, through which she explores themes of life and death, emotional struggles and burnout, and sometimes, just everyday life.

Since 2020, Riniifish has worked with fashion brands including Pull&Bear, Adriana Hot Couture and JIU JIE. She has exhibited at (Kraftwerk) Berlin, (Shinwa Digital Art Week) Tokyo, (TODA, Kanvas Gallery, and The Opus) Dubai, TezArt (Montreal),(NFT NYC) NYC, (Madrid’s Urban Digital Art Festival) (UVNT Art Fair) Madrid, and (GifFest at National Design Centre) Singapore.
