DREAM WORLD IX by @jacob

“DREAM WORLD IX” is the 9th piece in Jacob’s 10 piece genesis collection. It’s the second of three video pieces, each designed to seamlessly loop and all accompanied by custom scored tracks which also loop. The “DREAM WORLD” collection looks at connecting Jacob’s love to travel and his unique experiences, with the surrealism of the real world. These three videos look at specific moments in Jacob’s professional and personal life. Dedication — noun – the quality of being dedicated or committed to a task or purpose.“It was 1:30am when I left the hotel and drove myself 3 hours into the desert. From there I packed my camera bag, left the car at the side of the road and begin clambering over sand dunes. I’d spent the past few weeks scouring maps of the UAE for abandoned roads, ones that I’d heard stories about from locals. I started to believe they weren’t real but after several hours I found one; a road that was perfectly straight, covered with sand dunes and left to fade away. A mile of solo dune-hiking later I hit tarmac, it was a rewarding feeling. I’d planned to shoot on this particular day as the sun was supposed to rise dead-centre at the end of the road. I put the drone in the sky and sure enough, as I held the controller in my hand and filmed myself walking, the sun slowly began to appear at the end illuminating the landscape. Dedication can lead to the finest of rewards.” – Jacob Riglin. Captured in Abu Dhabi, UAE First collector will receive a digital frame displaying the video alongside a download link to the full resolution video.

Woman on Rocks by @aylaelmoussa

Seek and you shall find: As the setting sun casts the last pinnacles of light, I lay along the curves of ancient rocks, the tone of my skin blending into the cool textures.

A Traveler From a Distant Dream by @viniciuscosta

This is a static visual story depicting a childhood dream as a traveler of discovery, I believe we are all travelers on this journey that is called life, I wanted to create a simple but impactful composition using light to shine and illuminate this little dreamer at the center, I invite you to gaze the details and engage with this story.

Posession by @inessrychlik

Self-portrait as a faceless figurine trapped in an eternal dance. ♦ Inspired by the sheer talent of the NFT community and my filmmaking background, I am expanding my artistic practice. I have been learning 3D software, as well as experimenting with various methods of incorporating my own body into the moving image. In this painstaking piece of work, I combine photography, 3D animation and sound design to convey a story of destructive lust. 2000 x 3000.

Catalyst by @txstokes

This is the first work of mine that truly connects the digital and physical mediums I use as an artist. Catalyst started as a digital sketch and was then transferred onto canvas where it was painted. Afterwards I photographed the painting, animated it, and added ambience to complete the work in its digital form, going full circle. The physical painting is 20 x 24 inches (acrylic on canvas) and comes with the purchase. With the physical painting, you can view the digital version in AR on Artvive. The physical painting is also linked to the NFT through an NFC tag.
