Collaboration with LIFE Magazine and & KnownOrigin. Event at LIFE´s NY HQs.

I’m thrilled to announce my recent collaboration with LIFE Magazine during NFT New York, an event that took place on April 22, 2022. This opportunity is particularly special because I was selected along with five other international artists from hundreds of submissions. Together, we showcased our unique artistic visions in collaboration with the renowned LIFE Magazine, marking a significant milestone in my career.

 

For this collaboration, I presented my digital-analog hybrid piece titled “Home Restlessness” This artwork delves into the altered perception of time and space that many of us experienced during the pandemic. It reflects the restless energy and the sense of mutation that characterized our everyday lives during those unprecedented times. LIFE Magazine, known for its incredible photography and storytelling, has embarked on an exciting journey into the world of NFTs. In collaboration with the NFT marketplace KnownOrigin, LIFE is distributing exclusive drops of their iconic photographs, beginning with the first on April 14, 2022.

“LIFE always seeks to share its incredible photography with new communities,” said Tom Rowland, President of the LIFE Picture Collection. “There is a growing number of photography enthusiasts on Web3, and we see this as a way to engage with new audiences around photojournalism and art.”

I’m excited to share that my piece “Home Restlessness” was acquired by @Cryptojuiced through a blockchain contract facilitated by KnownOrigin. This acquisition not only highlights the growing appreciation for digital art but also underscores the evolving nature of art ownership in the digital age.
