Pak is one of the biggest names in the NFT space and the work we’ve created for this drop is breathtaking.
> A collaboration between the most digital and the most physical creators of the NFT space
> A collaboration between the minimalist and the maximalist
> A collaboration between the traditional and the new.
We wanted to explore the space between digital and physical, we wanted to explore new auction mechanics, we wanted to explore the possibilities and create a work/collection that is complete as a whole from the viewpoint of the physical and the digital with photography spanning both.

“I don’t listen to what art critics say. I don’t know anybody who needs a critic to find out what art is.”
Basquiat was first discovered as a graffiti artist but began to develop his style as more Neo-Expressionist with a primitive, expressive approach. He collaborated extensively with Warhol and this relationship was hugely beneficial but in ways debilitating as the New York art scene and critics regarded Basquiat as nothing more than a ‘talentless hustler’, riding the coattails of the famous Warhol.

“Art is what you can get away with.”
Warhol was an artist and filmmaker, an initiator of the Pop art movement of the 1960s whose mass-produced art apotheosized the supposed banality of the commercial culture of the United States. He projected a concept of the artist as an impersonal, ‘vacuous’ figure who is nevertheless a successful celebrity, businessman, and social climber.
