Pushing Daisies

Lady Absurd, caught off guard, pulling spaghettis from a sunflower. 

Youth is soaked in a liquid dream, clear and transparent yet quietly flowing away. You feel imprisoned in a small space and want to break through. Bubbles explode, mood changes like the color of tea.

Therapets: Forest Friends (Genesis Collection)

A magical creature, legend tells us that The Unicorn comes when you are going through exceptionally difficult times. When you have given up hope and feel all is lost, The Unicorn will bring you messages from the universe, encouraging you to feed your soul with intention, open yourself up to magical energies, and let the healing process begin.

Breathe in hope.  
Breathe out sorrow.

Affirmation: I open myself up to receiving love and happiness.

My Honorary entry into the Avril15 S3 Fan Art Competition. 

As Jack and Vera set about their mission to explore the habitability of their temporary home, Adam and Avril settled under an ancient gaming tree. Instead of fruit, this melting tree grew edible chess pieces, dice and glass marbles all of which tasted of liquorice. Amongst the lily pads beneath their tired feet, the mice scrambled to collect discarded memorabilia of  their youth that had floated across the solar system from their home planet many decades before. The nostalgia caused Avril to turn her shoulder, glancing back to planet earth.  She realised only now that they may never return

Power vs Meaning by Gavin Shapiro

Power vs Meaning is a conceptual blockchain artwork based on historian Yuval Noah Hararis idea that modern society is a deal in which humans agree to give up meaning in exchange for power. The series consists of two looping animations (Power and Meaning), each minted as an edition of 8 NFTs on the Ethereum blockchain. Playing on the idea of utility and collector rewards as prevalent themes in the NFT space, holders of Power will be granted the power to reward themselves with an additional edition of their NFT whenever they wish. Meaning, on the other hand, is simply a piece of art, and holders will not be granted any sort of utility or rewards. During the primary sale, collectors must choose between one or the other and are not able to bid on both. A social experiment that will only be able to fully tell its story as people interact with it, Power vs Meaning asks viewers to confront their own motivation for collecting NFTs in the first place. While Power offers utility, interaction, collector rewards, a rarity system based on exponential growth, and the potential for a community to organically form and evolve, Meaning offers nothing but the chance to own a digital penguin that infinitely waddles towards some sort of glowing metaphor for human motivation. As time goes on, how will the collection change, and what will it say about us? Artwork by Gavin Shapiro. Smart contracts by Manifold. Music by Tomas Novoa. Power holders can mint a new edition of Power at powervsmeaning.com.

Each one of us is a child of the cosmos. Born, raised, and buried on a rock orbiting the sun. Our earthly bodies are composed of stardust particles that originated from the heavens above. It is our destiny to return there. From dust we came and to dust we shall return.

Journey

Journey continues to push the boundaries of photography and generative art as it harnesses the same on-chain randomisation mechanics as Reflections did.

Inspired by the unique path that we are all on as humans, Journey combines 60 unique layers into familiar yet dream-like landscapes all connected by a unique "path" which leads you into the distance.

Whether a 2-lane highway or a raging river, each path leads toward a beautiful horizon under a dramatic sky to fuel a sense of wonder and awe in you, much like the feelings that are invoked for me when I travel to a new destination.

Hymn of Beauty

Hymn of delicate beauty,
Listen...
Whispers of melodies, secrets that speak in plain sight.
Unveiling depths beyond mere surface"s plight.
Truths and lies entwine,
Cunningly weaving a tapestry, both divine and malign.
Listen...
Hymn of beauty.

PEPE LOVE

Out of the Blue

Amidst pastel clouds, love"s gentle art,  
Raindrops descend, a dance from heart to heart.  
A woman"s embrace, her feline friend,  
In colors of love, a bond that won"t bend.
