An art experiment where artistic expression meets social interconnectivity.
This collection consists of 50 individually developed artworks that play with visual and digital parameters originating from a single blueprint. With a reimagination of the language of color, each variation results in a unique aesthetic throughout the entire collection. It’s a spin on editions, but better, and wilder. Each piece in the series becomes a standalone work of art, while celebrating their shared origin.
Supported by imnotArt, Chicago's first digital art and web3 creatives focused gallery, This project crafted the first ever phygital live minting experience when it was launched that allowed people to experience the collecting and viewing process in person and in the digital realm in real time.
Through the Spectrum - Blueprint
The installation bridges local and global networks: collectors holding pre-purchased mint passes choose their environment, either live-minting the artwork in person at a physical gallery in Chicago or participating globally via a custom-designed virtual gallery. By synchronizing these environments, "Through the Spectrum" challenges the boundaries of traditional gallery viewing, turning the act of collection into a shared, decentralized performance.

Blueprint:
The Blueprint is set up with a two-tone scheme that establishes a visual relationship between every element within the composition - to later be altered and revisioned yet still maintain such artistic language regardless of how the visual parameters are varied.
