@Miss_Lorlai@PannonianMantis When leadership is corrupt, unaccountable, and intentionally keeps people disempowered, what kind of citizenry do you expect to emerge?
@alatus_l0v The small hole or pocket-like area in underwear is called a gusset. It’s there for comfort, hygiene, breathability, and to reinforce the fabric. The hole is just part of the stitching design not meant to hold anything.
I’ve been hustling like a madman trying to make it in the traditional art world for nearly two years. It’s taken me that long to realize my art is absolutely nothing without NFTs if I ever hope to make a living from it again.
Can you share a story about acquiring one of your favorite pieces or any interesting moment in your collecting journey?
Absurdeity: A little less than a year into my collecting journey, I acquired “Uncommon Fiction”, a 1/1 by the artist Matías Roldán @yelojoquemira. […] Matías, who lives in Argentina, offered to send me the physical work. It was a generous offer, though neither of us realized just how generous it would turn out to be.
As it turned out, the art of Matías Roldán, along with that of other artists native to Argentina, was considered a national treasure and could not be legally exported. After many failed attempts and countless hours spent by Matías navigating Kafkaesque government bureaucracy, the physical artwork finally arrived in the USA almost three years after his initial offer.
Matías’ selfless generosity and dedication added such a depth of meaning to this already visually striking piece that I seriously doubt I will ever encounter another work I cherish more.
skullpture (re)creation is live on @TransientLabs!
over 200 obsessive hours of effort went into this one.
hand-built and now digitally immortalized on-chain.
the 1/1 auction includes the physical sculpture, a digital artwork representing the piece, and a digital certificate of authenticity using trace technology. 🔗⬇️
huge thanks to the m0d gc and everyone on the tl for the support, belief, and energy that kept me going.
lfg!
I don’t make art.
I leave evidence.
Of the chaos.
Of the silence.
Of the nights that nearly broke me.
Each piece isn’t a creation
It’s a confession,
a scar,
a signal.
Still here.
Still glitching.
Still real.
