The Deep End

Edition 1 of 1

Life will lead you in many different directions over the course of time. The one that feels the most inevitable is also the one that feels like it could be the end of everything. The moment when you feel like you have nowhere else to go. The moment where the only direction you see is straight down. That moment passes.

Caddylove

Edition 1 of 1

“Caddylove” captures the whimsical and romantic atmosphere of Las Vegas, a city known for its quick elopements/weddings and extravagant displays of love. The image features a pink Cadillac tire parked in front of a wedding chapel that is viewed through a heart-shaped fence. The meticulous composition of the photograph places the heart shape in the foreground, providing a dreamy and romantic feel to the image, while the blurred-out texture creates a sense of depth and dimension.” We can discern a few factors and metaphors from this photograph, like the joy and excitement of weddings and the unique charm of Las Vegas. The heart shape symbolizes the promise and commitment made in this place, but the pink Cadillac, the glamour, and the glitz of the city, so in a way, are contradictory, which can bring a viewer to the conclusion that most commitments made here are not made to last, or are they?

Infinity – Aquarium

Edition 1 of 1

Time does not exist, there is only the relationship between variables. Jacopo Di Cera began to investigate the depths of time, looking for a form that could express its contemporary meaning, with a plurality of contents but only one absolute term. In this research of his he found answers in the world of video art, managing to show us in a unique way, with the universal language of images, the current sense of time. According to Einstein’s theories, space and time are two faces of the same entity, every physical object in the universe, even ourselves, has its own time. The concept of “before”, “after” and “contemporaneity” fall. The time of each object can be defined as a closed circle, a loop, and the only thing that remains possible is to describe how the times of each entity intersect when they meet The Infinity project investigates this path, and tries to use visual art, video art in particular, to show us, as only art and artists can do, what our eyes cannot see. In this study that touches upon leisure social moments, such as summer and weekends, or winter breaks, the key factor weather that makes such moments “holidays” is eliminated. Actions no longer have a beginning and an end, the subjects live in an infinite and indefinite time loop. Our lives are made up of movements and actions, sometimes imperceptible and sometimes striking, and our time is filled with these actions. Jacopo Di Cera, through his art, shows us how such actions and their time are not only feasible, but united in a single loop, a single endless circle, where the beginning and the end merge and unite, creating a perpetual motion. In this scenario, Jacopo di Cera breaks down the last frontier that separates photography from the video image, creating works of art that communicate a quantum concept of time, which can no longer be expressed with normal means of communication.

Threads of Self-Expression

Edition 1 of 1

Fashion is a language of its own, speaking volumes about the person who wears it. It reveals secrets and conceals mysteries, hinting at the stories and emotions that lie beneath the surface. It is a veil that can be lifted, a whisper that can be heard, a code that can be deciphered.

Abyss

Edition 1 of 1

Inhale, exhale As I descend into the darkness, not knowing what is below me, I feel a hint of fear and excitement. Into the abyss, a ray of light illuminates the darkness. Inhale, exhale A shadow pushes through the darkness into the light. I swim towards it, while the imaginary escapes into the abyss. Inhale, exhale I descend further into the darkness and follow the mysterious shadow deep down.

Grand Sante

Edition 1 of 1

As Part of the Digital Heritage Curation: Take a journey back in time with GlitchOfMind where he pays tribute to his great-grandmother’s legacy through his art. Glitch grew up in a family of women who were devoted to finding natural remedies for their ailments, including the Afro-Caribbean spirituality belief system that was often demonized in favor of the enforce Christianity beliefs. Composition: The artwork is a composition of 3D, VR sculpting, photography, STABLE Diffusion (AI), and post-processing in Photoshop and Lightroom. The main scene was created using 3D elements and VR sculpting, while the texture of the character’s costume was created on Stable Diffusion and later converted into 3D materials to be applied. The pose of the character was inspired by the French painting, “La Méditation” by Anatole Vely, adding a touch of classical art to this vibrant and modern piece. The scenic backdrop is a photograph taken by GlitchOfMind in the Dominican Republic, his homeland, during one of his journeys back to his roots. Through this beautiful and elaborate piece, GlitchOfMind honors his family’s traditions while exploring his heritage. This artwork not only showcases his talent and creativity but also a love letter to his Afro-Caribbean heritage.

ODE TO A NIGHTINGALE

Edition 1 of 1

Inspired by the poem by John Keats, and the great songbird. This envelopes everything that I try to accomplish with my artwork. The humbling idea that we are all connected, to each other, the universe really, this digital world-even after death. Addressing mortality, without mourning. Your story, your artwork, what you write, your ideas, your decaying body that feeds the earth, the ashes of you washes into everything, and lives on. As with all of my artwork, I use erasure on the same photograph taken by me in many of my artworks, ripping it into pieces in many different layers. I sculpt those into something new, further painting to create. For this artwork I also used several AI generated artworks for added texture and shape. I use short, visible strokes to blend all of our connections together and our separation. Blending life with death, calm with chaos, the night sky with daybreak. The flowering blooms of that plum tree, and the mutual warm feeling on my skin-that is dirt and dust, where life can feed and grow, to burn and again feeding life.

The Light That Binds

Edition 1 of 1

The Light That Binds Made from layers of photoshop and digital painting, the light of the skies behind the backdrop of the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi is intensified in this work that combines a love and respect for the UAE, with techniques that elevate the photography into a moving artwork. The score is composed of Middle Eastern rhythms, pulling on the artist’s love and appreciation of music, which he learned in childhood.

Cloudy Frontiers

Edition 1 of 1

As he floated outside the spacecraft, he gazed in wonder at the vast expanse of the universe stretching out before him. The clouds below were just a distant memory as he explored the stars and galaxies that surrounded him. He had always dreamed of reaching beyond the clouds and discovering what lay beyond, and now, as an astronaut, that dream had become a reality. Every moment was a new adventure, as he floated weightlessly, taking in the beauty of the cosmos. He marveled at the endless possibilities of what he might find and felt a sense of awe and humility at being a small part of something so much greater. With every new discovery, he felt as though he was unlocking the secrets of the universe and learning more about the world and his place in it. For this astronaut, floating among the stars was a journey of self-discovery, a chance to find meaning and purpose in a universe beyond the clouds. And as he gazed upon the endless sea of stars, he couldn’t help but feel grateful for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, to explore and experience the mysteries of the universe.

The Second Chance

Edition 1 of 1

This artwork is my genesis to SR. And it also my first time experimenting isometric illusion with surrealism. I love Mc Esher’s work espcially the ‘Waterfall’ lithograph. So by combining that & surrealism, I come out with this. Surrealism always fascinated me, so here lots of random characters appeared on this piece. Short description that inspired my piece: NFT art really open my eyes to a whole new possibility. I was out of freelance/comission work during pandemic. When I was introduced to NFT, it gave me a second chance & a lifeline. So this piece can be interpreted as both, I’m accepting the second chance, or I’m giving the token of appreciation.

Withdrawals of Emotional Maleficence

Edition 1 of 1

“Withdrawals of Emotional Maleficence” is a massive contemporary multi-media collage composition that takes the viewer on a visual journey of my experiences, inspirations, and learnings. The mixed media used in this artwork is a testament to my time as a creator and combines physical doodles and paintings, photography, digital painting, gradients and collages made on Figma, and touches of AI tools. My goal was to create a striking and multi-dimensional artwork that can be explored to forever reveal new aspects with the hope of leaving a lasting impression on the viewer. For the trained eye, you can see influences of the greats such as David Hockney, Picasso, Van Gogh, and Monet, artists who have played a huge role in shaping my work, and who’s art I spent hours admiring in art galleries around the world. The exploration and references of their styles through the vibrant colors, bold strokes, and intricate details in the artwork was included as an homage to these masters of art, while still retaining the unique artistic voice I’ve found through my own journey. The intention behind “Withdrawals of Emotional Maleficence” was to capture my own real-life experiences: immigration, heartbreak, homesickness, social anxiety, traveling, all combined with different genres and styles to ultimately showcase my artistic evolution. I invite you to explore this artwork and hope it leaves you captivated by its depth and beauty.

Repose

Edition 1 of 1

Solitude and peace In the stillness of the mind, I find My true self in repose During a heavy period of life, I felt the deep urge to get out and create. It had been a while since I connected with a subject and my camera, even though it was late and cold, I packed up my tripod and travel strobe light. I had an idea. Why not use myself to appease the muse? I put on my heavy peacoat, grabbed an old newspaper, pack of smokes and my hat and drove to an empty mall parking lot for a self-portrait. I wanted to convey a sense of mystery and calmness, like someone waiting for a train, a person who appears to have lived storied life with still many things to do but is patiently awaiting their pickup for the journey ahead—the capturing of Repose. *Haiku made in collaboration with AI

Fuck It

Edition 1 of 1

Time doesn’t even present itself, without excitement, without a chance. It passes without leaving a trace and takes the world with it. It takes the world to live and brings death. A strange, intimate being. It passes suspiciously, so sneakily that you need to constantly think about it. Omnipotent, omnipresent… Am I just a cog with the sole purpose of allowing it to pass and continue to be felt, and therefore, existing? Or am I just a result of an inevitable chain of coincidences in front of eternity, and therefore, the living proof of it? The infinite assumes that there can be neither an end nor a beginning. And I, as an organic circumstance, fear death, why? If I’ve been dead all the time even before I was born? Fuck it. Screw all lack of choice! And screw time too! Because thinking about it is losing it. // Oil on Canvas handmade painted by Susano Correia. The NFT represents the digital piece.

Donors and those to whom these sacrifices are intended. Everyone is tied up in this tangle. We sacrifice ourselves for others and others for ourselves. We sacrifice freedom for love, fun for peace, life for eternity. We sacrifice our bodies and souls. We ourselves eat these sacrifices and feed small parasites, always accompanying us. Maybe sacrifice is the basis of all being? Or is this the biggest misconception that prevents us from living?

I feel more deeply, I feel more free, I truly belong in this world that I created. My creative dreamland, my safe space, where I am the center of my universe. I am boundless, I take pieces of it into my art. I try to make this world into my reality, I truly feel like myself here.

Radiant Rumination

Edition 1 of 1

We can see that this piece is full of contrapositions. From the myriad of hues, the rough textures of the modeling on the subtle background, to even the sizes of the characters, all contribute to creating a surreal effect. Similar to the ceiling of the Capella Scrovegni (1303) that inspired this environment, it creates a majestic space that plays with that contrast of colors with its hundreds of yellow stars painted on its blue ceiling. This work is an allegory to contemplation, one that this ambiance stimulates, eternally encouraging us to disconnect from the weight that we carry on our shoulders daily. An increasingly unusual, but very necessary gesture.

never die before going to outer space

Edition 1 of 1

I want to somehow get out of the earth and bring my body into outer space. Unconsciously trying to create a meditative state. A universe that I create myself, not something I learned from someone else. Trust only the sense of perception based on my own experience and thoughts. In any case, the trigger to take me into space is provided by the crypto. Only this experience cannot be deceived by virtual digital. That needs to be true physically. Please take me there.

That which remains

Edition 1 of 1

“If the world were a museum of memories, a collection of places she’d outgrown.” That which remains when we leave. That which remains when we stay. That which remains of the time that passes. That which remains of us. That which remains when we change. Long exposure is the technique I use to create the connection between my body and my inner world. The way to make my feelings and thoughts visible.

“January: 23.01.23”

Edition 1 of 1

“January: 23.01.23″ 1/1 2023 SuperRare Genesis “A Year In Colour” Collection 4200x5455px at 300dpi Throughout my artistic career, all my work has been synaesthetic; in that I experience sound/music as colour, texture and movement and transcribe these forms and emotional responses into a visual language. This year long series however will draw reference from a book I read during my Masters “Wednesday is Indigo Blue”. A book which describes how us synaesthetes assign colour and texture to periods of time/days/experiences via our emotional response. As the year progresses, new pieces will be minted chronicling events alongside everyday minutiae and will be assigned their corresponding colour score. The conversations, the music, the resonant hum this will all go into each piece, building towards a collection that composes a colour map. At the end of the year, this will be used as a blueprint to create a projection/sound installation. This project is my “Year In Colour” but an invitation for you all to come along for the ride 🌈

A Mask Won’t Hide Who You Are Inside.

Edition 1 of 1

All our lives we tend to get conflicted with who we are, We find ourselves running from our own identity Living in denial of certain things that we just haven’t developed the courage to embrace about ourselves But we all have to get to the point where it doesn’t matter anymore, The point where we realize that in order to find purpose we must embrace who we really are inside We must stop hiding under masks so we can see our paths clearly. We must learn to detach the person we think we are from the person we really are. Because a Mask Won’t Hide Who We Are Inside. -AnjolaDave

bubble boy

Edition 1 of 1

After ten years of vicious, bordering on violent debate between traditionalists and the emerging AI art movement, it was decided: Young aspiring artists must be pure, free of any outside influence. In the 2030s, art academies popped up that promised parents their children would be trained without any risk of impression. All ideas were to have a clear chain of thought, traceable to their genesis. To do so, students were made to wear nanometric bubbles. These contraptions would screen out any influence (visual, audio, or otherwise) that could possibly impact their art. They were known as bubble boys and bubble girls, in a nod to the early 2000s “Bubble Boy” movie, which had joined the ranks of “Citizen Kane” and “Casablanca” of all-time classic films. Instead of relying on influence, these pupils would be trained intensely in the technical skills of drawing, painting, and color theory. Simon was one such student enrolled at the Warhol Academy of Art, one of the most prolific institutions of the new method, that had expanded locations rapidly thanks to cheap debt and franchising. His parents were fans and collectors of Warhol’s work and were ecstatic for their son to follow in the legend’s footsteps. However, Simon was never able to live up to their dreams. He would bring home detailed sketches of fruit bowls and landscapes, but they lacked a sense of soul (or perspective, for that matter). Disappointment was on their lips. Over dinner each night, as Simon would bring in food through his bubble’s information-secure valve, they would ask him: “How is it going at school, honey?” After weeks of what felt like a nightly interrogation, Simon became despondent. He was doing what he was told to do. He was creating things that were pure. There was no outside influence. No “crutch” to rely on, no homage to point to. He was free of inspiration, and seemingly, free of talent. // An ai-assisted piece by ClownVamp. Part of the panicland series, an exploration of moral panic.
