1/1 - Hand Drawn Digital Illustration - early 2025.
This work was completed over the course of two days in early 2025, pulling from a wide range of symbolic imagery, text fragments, and narrative cues that reflect both my past and my evolving practice. The piece functions like a coded field—layered with symbols of Brooklyn, currency, identity, meditation, technology, and cultural memory-stitched together through my process of drawing, scanning, and digital refinement.
It is both chaotic and precise, dense yet open to interpretation. The composition invites the viewer to wander, to decode and re-code meaning as they move through its parts. Some elements recall my earlier SuperRare works from 2019–2021, when I first began embedding cryptic visual language into hand-drawn and animated pieces. Others look forward, signaling the portal-driven direction my work is taking in 2025: blending art with systems thinking, human consciousness, and algorithmic futures.
“Invest in Your Algorithm” is not just a title, it is a directive. It reminds us that our attention, choices, and creative energy shape the frameworks we live in. This illustration stands as both a meditation on symbols and a document of my ongoing dialogue between drawing, design, and the crypto-art space. Minted now, it anchors a lineage from my earliest blockchain experiments to the work I continue to unfold today.
