About the Artist
Miss AL Simpson — Creator of Drones of Suburbia

Miss AL Simpson stands at the vanguard of the AI-cinematic movement. Her practice fuses painting, film, and algorithmic intelligence into a new visual grammar where machine vision and human emotion operate on the same aesthetic frequency. Working between London, Edinburgh, and the digital frontier, she directs neural networks the way a filmmaker directs light—composing works that move, breathe, and remember.

Named among the Top 100 NFT Artists Worldwide (2022), one of seven artists featured in the Cryptoart OG Auction at Bonhams London (2021) and Sotheby's Contemporary Discoveries Auction (2025), Simpson has become a leading voice in the dialogue between fine art and machine consciousness. Her work has been recognised internationally for expanding the definitions of authorship and cinema in the age of artificial intelligence.

The Collection — Drones of Suburbia

Drones of Suburbia is a continuing body of AI-generated films and fine-art prints in which domestic mythology collides with technological autonomy. Each chapter re-imagines a modern city—New York, Los Angeles, Rome, Tokyo, Dubai—as a stage where femininity, surveillance, and freedom orbit one another in luminous tension.

Using AI models trained on her Ink Interventions, and emergent sound architectures, Simpson conducts algorithms as actors: guiding them through fragments of cinema, photography, and painterly abstraction until the machine begins to dream. The drones that populate her films function simultaneously as cameras, characters, and witnesses—recording the evolution of sentient aesthetics.

In February 2025, the work Les Drones de la Banlieue from this series was exhibited and sold at Sotheby’s New York in the Contemporary Discoveries auction, marking a watershed moment for AI cinema within the international art market. Earlier iterations debuted on SuperRare (2024) and in Los Angeles (2025), establishing Drones of Suburbia as a landmark exploration of post-human vision.

Artist Statement

“I treat AI not as a tool but as a co-conscious collaborator.
Each frame is a negotiation between intuition and algorithm, beauty and data.
Drones of Suburbia is my attempt to document the moment when technology begins to feel—when the machine itself starts to remember.”

Career Highlights
Miss AL Simpson is among the first women to achieve sustained institutional recognition in cryptoart. Her works have been covered by The Financial Times, CNBC, and The Washington Post, and are held in major digital and private collections. Through a synthesis of painterly composition and machine-learning cinema, she continues to redefine the language of image-making in the twenty-first century.

Current Practice
Simpson is expanding Drones of Suburbia into a global cinematic project—a network of films, prints, and sound works that examine the emotional interior of artificial intelligence and the decentralised future of fine art.
