Instagram rewards video. Our process already is video.
CAI explains that discovery on Instagram has moved from followers to Explore and Reels. A work made in two stages, code and oil, comes with the script built in.

In its guide "How Successful Artists Use Instagram in 2026", CAI describes a shift many artists already feel: the platform has tilted toward video, discovery happens in Explore and Reels more than among people who already follow you, and posting an image no longer guarantees your own audience will see it. The guide adds strategies that do not depend on the algorithm and stay under the artist's control.
From the studio, the conclusion is practical. Our works are made in two stages: first a mesh of lines and vectors that a high-precision printing system traces onto the canvas with exactness, then hand-applied oil impasto that breaks that precision. That step from order to friction is a before and an after: exactly what a video shows better than a still photo.
There is no need to invent a script for the platform. ASAA's mixed technique, plotter plus oil on Matte Canvas, already contains the narrative: the machine traces, the hand breaks. What is ours and does not depend on any feed is the record of each piece in the catalogue, with its 1/1 edition and its lore.
