I go for Hugo Faz now, though. Old attribution.
The full movie though is a gem. You should watch it.
@celebtease could do the courtesy to @ tag the artist 🙃
7 months have passed since queer artist Sina Beizavinejad escaped from Iran, where the regime made him live in constant fear for his life due to his sexuality, artistic expression and his renunciation of islam. His situation was aggravated by USA sanctions against Iranian citizens, which further limited his expression, even through web3 systems. His migration to Brazil was enabled by @Casa_NUA's embrace of the 6529 network, and the network's support of Casa NUA in return.
In the photograph, Sina (@2AWD4Art) rests from his work week at Casa NUA on a Sunday afternoon, wearing Havaianas in brazilian colors – his welcome gift from me – while nonchalantly holding his Iranian passport, now finally free to live fully in his own skin.
Shot on July 5th, 2026, in Casa NUA, São Paulo, Brazil, and just submitted to Keys and Gates on 6529.
I’m asking for your support voting on this submission: it’s the only photograph in the entire contest that actually documents a true story about the network society enabling exit.

@folha It was fun and also a very important demonstration.
Every year I take part in São Paulo’s World Naked Bike Ride event. In 2023 I performed the iconic Fight for Freedom to Transact act as Sgt. Pepe.
Usually all I have on my skin is Spinoza/Deleuze’s “what can a body [do/be]?”

The holder of the NFT gets a yearly day long 1-1 session with me, online or IRL.

“Portrait of Absence”, 2022.
Previously listed on FND, now directly available on OpenSea. Same provenance, new marketplace.
This piece was created with a different, very personal trigger, which can be guessed at by taking a few seconds with the image. But being available for such a long time, I now see the Absence under another light as well.
I have very few 1-of-1s available. Yet, like this one, most of them have been unsold for many years, not due to poor quality, excess supply or unreasonable pricing but because my work is too queer for 99% of NFT art collectors.
I never left all this time because I truly believe in this movement and tech. I LOVE what I’m building on 6529. I’ve put my full time here since 2021 and tenfold more money in NFTs than I made from them.
I’ve been told by a collector friend to reduce my prices to be able to sell out, but it’s a bit offensive. My work is already accessible, 1-1s range from 0.1 to 0.69 eth in different series/collections, prices perfectly in line with the quality of the work and my supply which is pretty scarce. I see low effort, high repetition work sell for a lot more every day. The most successful artists are rewarded for being repetition machines. I make art in my own terms and refuse to compromise. Moisturized in the Absence.

Portrait of Absence.
I have very few 1-of-1s available. Will you become my collector and own this very personal piece?
