#22 - Boldtron

Xavier Cardona is one half of Boldtron, the digital art duo he forms with his brother Daniel, known for blending 3D, CGI, VR, and AI into surreal, organic worlds. In this episode, Xavier traces his move from illustration and 3D into early generative AI experimentation, and shares why he’s more interested in bending reality than recreating it. From starting ideas on paper and building hybrid AI workflows to his belief that “the idea is the new currency,” Xavier explores how artists can use new technology to develop a visual language that still feels unmistakably their own.
