Vivek Blech, aka UBIK, is an Indian artist living and working in Dubai. UBIK is heavily influenced by film, beatnik and gonzo literature, music, street art, anarchism and existentialist thought. The core of UBIK’s work deals with the relative ideology of chaos. It renders the absurdity of the world order and comments on the machinated playgrounds of human cliches, in a sarcastic and realistic way.
