DEVOID COLLECTION

DEVOID is an ongoing collection of one-of-a-kind 24-bit artworks. Each one is available as an NFT and as a print for purchase in our store.

DEVOID is part one of four digital art chapters that form an asynchronous meta-narrative alongside several HYPERREAL film and book projects. They comprise 24-bit, 128-bit, analog and 3D executions, moving through artistic executions as the story develops. Together they tell the story of an intelligent being that finds itself trapped on a 2Dimensional plane.

This is a long term, multi-year experimental project. Have you ever seen a cliffhanger in an art canvas? You will…

As mentioned, each artwork will also exist as a one-of-a-kind NFT, which can be bid on at OpenSea.io. NFT’s are the equivalent of a digital asset license and are recorded on an immutable ledger. It will be impossible for anybody else to own the NFT and this can make NFT’s valuable over time - if you don’t know anything about NFT’s then take a look at our explainer below.

Ok then, what are NFT’s?

NFT, or Non-Fungible Token, applies to a digital asset whose ownership can be proven and is unique. NFT’s operate in a similar way to cryptocurrency (utilising the blockchain; a permanent and immutable ledger which contains all transactions that occur between parties) and are used to create verifiable digital scarcity, as well as digital ownership, and have allowed digital art to be treated like physical art.

Art, in this sense, could apply to almost any digital asset, from artwork that could just as easily be on your wall at home, to items that only exist in virtual worlds.

Digital art? Can’t they just be screenshotted? A great question but, no - not exactly. Like all art throughout history, there is a difference between the Artistic Idea, which may be enjoyed by many people for free, and the ownership of the original item. We’ve all seen the Mona Lisa, but that doesn’t make it any less valuable to the institution that owns the original painting. The art is for everyone, the painting is the store of value.

NFT’s make the most of this by being exchanged on the blockchain. This means that each NFT owner can prove their ownership easily as their transaction is recorded on an immutable ledger. In many ways, this makes the transaction more secure and valuable than physical art since there is no chance of loss, damage or theft.

NFT’s can be traded/auctioned and increase in value over time, in the same way as any art. The largest sale of an NFT so far is 888ETH ($1.5m at the time).

Beyond this, crypto art is something to be enjoyed and whilst our pieces are for sale, every one has been crafted for personal enjoyment as a form of playful expression. You’ll also find physical prints for sale in the store - though the NFT of each piece is unique 1/1 and will only ever be owned by one person at any one time. Enjoy!
