Day 8 sharing my artwork to find my art community

We used to say that most people LOOK, but do not SEE. And today, it seems like people do not even LOOK anymore

Thought trailer looked great! Not even one positive comment.

They mostly hate the song

I don’t see dept of emotion in the main character’s eyes
Other than that I’m excited!

@kikanicolela That is true, and if the artwork breath’s desperation for $$ in the early career stage, you won’t succeed.

Only established artists that didn’t need the $$ when they started, like Jeff Koons can pull that off.

[Chukwu @chukwuart]

@kikanicolela Sometimes it’s unfair how an artist has to live to survive, but as a collector, doesn’t it turn you off slightly when an artist makes their work solely for the $$ it can fetch?

This happens when artists create to SELL, instead of creating to express

[Kika Nicolela @kikanicolela]

Reflection of the day:

Is really necessary to control the offer so much?
Do artists need to keep burning pieces to create scarcity?
Should artists feel pressured to sell out immediately? And not mint if they have pieces available on primary?

I am tired, as a collector, of seing pieces I would love to buy, unavailable because artists burned them.

Or as a curator, to have an artist asking me if the piece will be sold, before even creating it.

We should normalize having pieces available on primary. So collectors have a choice. And are happy to discover and collect older pieces.
