Letters
New Media (Digital Drawing)
1,000 JPEGβs
October 2021
Letters is a series of 1,000 hand-drawn digital artworks that intertwine gestural techniques of mark-making and tagging with the expansive possibilities of repetition, creating a dialogue between the concepts of communication, exchange, and transaction in a digital era. Drawing from the βenvelopeβ symbol, which has long served as a vessel for intimate messages and negotiations across distances, these works embody the personal act of sending through networks of existence. Through flat compositions preserved on the Ethereum blockchain, this series marries the raw immediacy of manual creation with the permanence of distributed technology. Send more mail.
