"Lace Arteries I" Drawing

Miss AL Simpson is an award-winning OG cryptoartist and contemporary fine artist whose practice bridges digital innovation with art-historical lineage. Her distinctive aesthetic merges a digital graffiti language reminiscent of Basquiat, Rauschenberg, and Kippenberger with 3D historical motifs, animation, and layered collage. She was named one of NFT Now’s Top 100 NFT Artists of the Year (2022) and was among the first artists exhibited at a major auction house, participating in Bonhams’ inaugural NFT Auction “Cryptoart OGs” (London, June 2021). In February 2025, she exhibited and sold an AI video artwork at Sotheby’s New York Contemporary Discoveries Auction, further cementing her position as a pioneer at the intersection of art and technology. Her work has been covered by The Washington Post, CNBC, and the Financial Times, and she has exhibited internationally in London, New York, Paris, Tokyo, and Vancouver. “In this digital avant-garde, Miss AL Simpson has become one of the chief protagonists of this new movement.” — Bonhams Drawing on influences such as Martin Kippenberger and Robert Rauschenberg, Anna Louise incorporates found materials—billposters, magazines, fragments of urban detritus—into textured mixed-media surfaces. These layers become a dialogue between power and fragility, exposing tales of passion, desire, and cultural distortion. At times her stories whisper with tenderness; at other times they erupt in brash graffiti, fractured slogans, and urgent gestures. Her fragmented portraits, often embedded in dystopian cityscapes, capture an honesty that reveals both the brokenness and vitality of contemporary life. By excavating the “rips” of popular culture, she positions herself as what she describes as “a keeper of fragile things.” Through both analogue and digital practices, Miss AL Simpson challenges the boundaries between technology and humanity, memory and reinvention—offering collectors artworks that are as much cultural documents as they are visual experiences.
