Evo is an AI artist from Curaçao, a Dutch Caribbean island rich in Creole heritage. Known for her use of vibrant colors, layered symbolism, and a blend of figurative and abstract elements, Evo’s work stands at the crossroads of memory, myth, and machine. She was recently recognized by Tender as one of the most notable AI artists today.

In this conversation, Evo walks us through the making of Annunaki, her new custom-trained model on TITLES where mythology meets Afrofuturism, and tradition is projected onto the canvas of distant futures.

This series came together naturally. My work often explores divinity, and during my own spiritual journey, I began questioning why Africa, the cradle of civilization, is so absent in religious art. That led me to explore the links between Africa, especially Egypt, and global religions. Once I tapped into their creation stories, a whole new world opened up. As for the fashion, I wanted to create a retro-futuristic vibe—where fashion meets ancient myth, and Black figures return from the future to reclaim what’s theirs. Everyone is Black in this world—a nod to Africa as the origin of humanity, where creation began and where it all returns.

Curaçao is a predominantly Afro-Caribbean island with its own government, and I grew up seeing Black people—especially women—lead with pride and strength. While the Dutch still hold power and own much of the land, what inspires me most is how our people, once enslaved, never lost their sense of worth. That resilience fuels the energy of Annunaki—it’s in the stance, the gaze, the garments.

Fashion tells stories without words. For Annunaki, I imagined garments as future relics—inspired by traditional Egyptian fashion but reimagined through an African lens. The shapes and symbols hint at something spiritual and timeless, connecting past, present, and future.

Not so much preservation—more like bringing ancient worlds to life with a modern twist. Annunaki isn’t about freezing the past, but reimagining it through today’s lens. Many people don’t know these stories, so maybe it’ll pique their interest and spark deeper curiosity about our origins.

I’d hope they see that I’m deeply connected to ancestry, spirituality, and the future all at once. Annunaki is a reflection of how I tell stories—through symbols, style, and presence. I want my work to make people feel something ancient yet unfamiliar, like they’ve remembered something they didn’t know they forgot.

To date, 57 artworks have been created using Annunaki by notable artists like JuujuuMama, RakimJah, LinoMafy, and Sudutalien—and I’m honestly amazed by how deeply people connect with the story I’m building through each piece I mint. It feels like they’re adding their own chapters—depicting rituals, landscape, or scenes that are distinctly theirs, yet still carry the unmistakable imprint of the Annunaki model. It’s incredibly inspiring and pushes me to keep creating. This kind of collaborative creation with TITLES introduces a new layer to community in art—where artists can earn recognition and royalties when others build on their work. It’s storytelling through shared vision.

Evo’s Annunaki model invites us to imagine a time where tradition and futuristic fashion intertwine—where the past is not only remembered but re-coded into digital fabric. With roots firmly planted in the Creole legacy of Curaçao and a vision that extends into galaxies unknown, Evo continues to reframe what it means to be an artist in the age of AI. Create with Annunaki on TITLES, here.

Much love,
