"CEREMONY" by House of Gog & Brent Ashe — Where A.I. and Art Collide!

There are art pieces that simply decorate a shelf — and then there are works that define a moment, mark a new era, and spark a conversation about what art can be. House of Gog’s latest release, CEREMONY, is absolutely the latter. And even at a steep $1,800, this astonishing piece feels like a steal when you realize what it represents: the first-ever human/A.I. collaborative art statue, and the beginning of an entirely new universe.

This isn’t just a statue — it’s the physical embodiment of a vision. Designed and directed by the brilliant Brent Ashe, CEREMONY is the first chapter of DOMINION, an original IP steeped in dark mythos and atmospheric storytelling. In this world, Neksis Vorn — a tragic and terrifying figure — roams a post-cataclysmic wasteland, consuming memory and soul alike in an attempt to shape what comes next. His tale, The Corruption of Neksis Vorn, is hauntingly poetic:

"He feeds upon their whispered dreams, In his wake, a river of silence. Souls bound to the prison of his mind, The cradle of their ceaseless night."

And that same energy, that weight, is present in every inch of this statue. Standing a commanding 24 inches tall, crafted from high-quality polystone resin and hand-painted with intricately weathered monochrome details, CEREMONY feels less like a collectible and more like a museum-grade art piece. Each statue is slightly unique thanks to hand-painted variations, limited to only 150 numbered pieces, and personally signed by Brent Ashe himself.

This is art at the intersection of tradition and technology. While generative A.I. helped spark the initial design process, it was human craftsmanship that refined and realized the final form. It’s a deeply collaborative effort — not just between Ashe and House of Gog, but between human intuition and digital possibility. As the team puts it:

“This project isn’t about replacing artists, but exploring new creative possibilities through a human-led process.”

Included with the statue are some truly thoughtful touches: a high-quality art print, a metallic collector card, a mini zine exploring the lore of DOMINION, and a deluxe box designed by Ashe himself. It’s a fully immersive experience — a narrative, an artwork, a collectible, and a conversation all in one.

Even with a price tag of $1,800, pre-orders have already begun and are going fast. A $100 non-refundable deposit secures your piece, with shipping slated for Q4 2025. And yes, this is a preorder worth planning for — because once they’re gone, CEREMONY will be near-impossible to come by.

For those of us who live at the crossroads of storytelling, design, and obsession with detail, this piece isn’t just desirable — it’s essential. House of Gog and Brent Ashe didn’t just create a statue. They created a moment. And for those lucky enough to own CEREMONY, they’ll hold a piece of that moment forever.
