JO & Friends Art ShowKSUBI NYCAbout the Artist
AutoTeasers is an artist and photographer based in Philadelphia whose practice is rooted in a heightened awareness of the everyday. The name itself speaks to an instinctive act: to pause, observe, and absorb one’s surroundings. From this moment of attention emerges the “teaser”.
A fleeting yet deliberate capture of life, whether through photography or cinematography guided by the belief that life itself is art.
Shaped by environment, motion, and atmosphere, AutoTeasers’ work privileges emotion and presence over mere documentation. Early immersion into graffiti and photography inspired his distinctive visual language, one that translates life, texture, and rhythm into evocative compositions.
Born in Ukraine and raised largely in Cyprus, he relocated to the United States in 2003. After refining his practice in Tampa, Florida, he established himself in Philadelphia in 2020, bringing with him a perspective informed by diverse cultures and lived experiences. His work draws from graffiti, street art, music, and motorsport, exploring the dynamic relationship between subject and setting.
Through carefully composed imagery, AutoTeasers creates immersive visual narratives that resonate on an emotional level works that are at once immediate and contemplative, inviting the viewer into a charged and intentional moment.
Mind In BloomUZI
The artist is capturedmid-performance. Voice alive, energy rising, yet the true spectacle unfolds within. From his mind bursts a vivid crown of flowers and light, symbolizing the raw, unfiltered flow of creativity. Each bloom represents an idea taking shape, while the swirling sparks echo the momentum of inspiration as it ignites and expands.
This work speaks to the unseen process behind artistic expression: the chaos, beauty, and transformation that occur internally before they reach the world. The performer is not just delivering sound, he is building, imagining, and evolving in real time. Here, creativity is limitless, and the mind becomes both stage and canvas.
Each piece features a photo taken by AutoTeasers himself and limited to 5 unique one of a kind art pieces, where the canvas was stretched by hand and covered in high quality resin. Each piece is numbered and hand signed.
UnapologeticMarilyn
This piece represents women empowerment.Marilyn Monroe is reimagined as a symbol of modern empowerment—confident, expressive, and fully in control of her identity. Surrounded by vibrant color and sculpted roses, the work reflects themes of self-love, resilience, and freedom.

The Next MoveTravis
Caught in a moment between sound and silence, the artist turns inward—performing on the surface while deeply focused beneath it. His posture is still, contemplative, as if the next verse, the next idea, the next evolution is forming just out of reach. From his mind, a crown of delicate blooms emerges, symbolizing creativity in its most intimate stage—quiet, intentional, and unfolding.
Silent StudyRosé
Bathed in deep red light, the artist stands in a moment that feels both still and alive—observing, absorbing, and processing the world around him. The rising smoke transforms into delicate blooms, symbolizing thoughts taking shape as he watches and learns. Inspiration doesn’t always arrive in motion; sometimes it forms in quiet reflection, in the subtle act of paying attention.
This piece captures the balance between presence and creation. The artist is not only performing within his environment but studying it—gathering energy, emotion, and detail to fuel what comes next. In this moment, creativity is a slow burn, unfolding with intention, where every observation becomes the seed of a new idea.
