Brave New World

I selected Brave New World to be my cover image of The NFT Yearbook as the Ying Yang nature of the image embodies the way in which I feel we are embracing the digital world. The many layers, twists and turns represent the evolving yet flowing process required to navigate and build within this space. The varying tones from dark to bright have been used to highlight both the positive and negative experiences we have and will continue to encounter before finally breaking free in to the light and heights that were never previously imaginable.
