TOUCH
THE ART.

This series is inspired by my physical magnetic works that allow the viewer to manipulate the pieces of the work to create customized arrangements. The mantra of ‘touch the art’ was concieve after telling my son to ‘not touch the art’ at galleries. I did not like the feeling of telling someone to not experience art in a tactile way.

Digital Collection

Tech Epochalypse is meant to engage viewers and give them the opportunity to control the final output of the work. The suite of control layers lead to options. This is the first release with this level of functionality and will be the building blocks for future experiential releases. Tech Epochalypse is built on the ERC-7160 token standard which allow the tokens to evolve over time.

Control Layers

Symbolic of the many ways we are all tracked and harvested from on a daily basis, each of these visual control layers shine a light so we can become aware of what is happening around and to us.

These works were created to inspire new thoughts each time they are viewed, so for this reason layouts cannot be saved. Once the art is reloaded, the layout starts fresh and inspires a new expression.
