CONNECTING ARTISTS FROM EVERY COUNTRY ON EARTH
Project 195 is an ongoing mission by 13AM to build a truly global creative network, representing artists from every country in the world, something that has never been done before.
By bringing together different cultures, perspectives, and lived experiences, the project creates a shared space where creativity can exist without borders. In an ever more divided world, it offers a way to connect through a universal language, building a collection that reflects the world as it is today.
AS FEATURED IN
168/195 COUNTRIES REPRESENTED
No creative platform, gallery, brand, or institution has ever achieved full global representation. Project 195 exists to change that.
Today, 13AM represents 168 of the world’s 195 countries, brought together into a single creative collection and community.
Later this year, we will reach 182 countries. At that point, online discovery stops and The Final 13 begins...
The moment we step into the real world.
The final 13 countries are the hardest to reach, shifting the approach from digital discovery to real-world connection, travelling in person to find and collaborate with artists on the ground.
Captured as it happens, it becomes a global series, completing a world-first creative movement in front of the world.
lATEST FROM AROUND THE WORLD
#ARTIST391 | SPAIN
Sergi Ribot, who signs his work as Space Rocket, is a Mallorcan collage artist whose surreal, nostalgic scenes feel like memories of a world that never quite was. Born in Mallorca, he grew up on a farm surrounded by animals, riding the tractor with his grandfather and losing himself in the cornfields, dolls and toys always in tow, spending hours imagining, drawing and building a world of his own. That instinct never left him: today he is a graphic designer running his own studio, Indigo Estudio, and still invents worlds, now as surreal collage where the impossible turns strangely familiar.
The sea runs through everything he makes, a lifelong refuge and, as he describes it, his peace and his everything, with the scent of summer pine trees beside the water standing in for the feeling of home. Now based in Bali and hopping from island to island, Sergi lets travel widen his view and feed his imagery, while his pieces continue to speak from nostalgia, of childhood moments, deep memories, sensations and instants never lived. He likes to think of each one as a message in a bottle drifting through time, with a little Pink Floyd, Hendrix and the seventies tucked inside

#ARTIST388 | AUSTRALIA
Brolga is an Australian-based artist and illustrator who first gained recognition for his large-scale wheat pastes, street art, and murals on the streets of New York. With an aesthetic that blends graphic punch and daydream-like looseness, he crafts characters that speak without words, inviting audiences into imaginative, universal stories.
His art began on the road. Growing up in Australia, Brolga's family would make days-long journeys across the country, moving house from Queensland to the Northern Territory and back, and it was on these trips through the remote terrain of his home that he first started illustrating his surreal, imaginative characters. Influenced by years of travel and living abroad, those characters now appear across murals, installations, prints, and brand collaborations alike, always carrying the same playful, wordless storytelling at their core. His work has been commissioned by the likes of Nike, Jaguar, Apple, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Lego, Google, The New York Times, BMW, and YouTube Kids.

#ARTIST389 | ICELAND | FRANCE
Pétur Atli Antonsson Crivello, known creatively as PAAC, is an illustrator and art director born and raised in Iceland to an Icelandic mother and a French father. His creative path has spanned continents, beginning with a BFA in Illustration from the Academy of Art University in San Francisco in 2011.
After graduating, Pétur spent a year working in San Francisco's gaming industry before returning home to Iceland. In the years since, he has built a truly international practice, creating book covers for clients and companies around the world for over 15 years, and today channels that experience as an art director at a gaming studio in Iceland. His work moves fluidly between the worlds of publishing and games, shaped by a career that bridges his Icelandic and French heritage and the storytelling sensibilities of both illustration and interactive design.

#ARTIST382 | BRAZIL
Gabriel Diogo is a designer and illustrator, born and raised on the East Side of São Paulo, Brazil. A graduate in Graphic and Digital Design from the Istituto Europeo di Design, he describes himself as a designer who found himself in illustration, someone who has always made art. Passionate about colour and texture, he draws to connect with his more fantastical, introspective side, hoping to influence people in the best possible way through his work.
His design and illustration have taken him to an impressive roster of clients, including Itaú, Nike, Corinthians, Paulistão, ASICS, Hotels.com and Brahma. His work has also been recognised with two Bronze awards: at PR Awards Asia 2022 for Hotels.com's Marks of Summer campaign (with Weber Shandwick), and at the 2023 Prêmio Brasileiro de Design (BDA) for the Granellos packaging (with Palp Studio).

LADY FINGERS
#ARTIST390 | SAMOA
Nikki Mariner is a self-taught Samoan painter based in Samoa, whose vibrant acrylics on canvas explore the rich interior lives of modern Samoan women and their relationships with one another and the world around them. Her work examines how these women navigate a modern, technological world while remaining deeply rooted in an indigenous, traditional Pacific culture, blending bright colours and bold patterns with traditional Samoan tattoo motifs and textiles, and placing her subjects within their natural tropical surroundings.
Beyond her own practice, Nikki is co-founder of Manamea Art Gallery, and in 2024 she represented Samoa in visual arts at the Festival of Pacific Arts (FestPAC) in Honolulu. Her large-scale paintings now welcome international visitors in the VIP Lounge terminal at Faleolo International Airport, a fitting reflection of her role as one of the leading creative voices of her nation.
