Let's get digital
Courtesy of Sotheby's comes the groundbreaking, surrealist, data-led artwork series Corona Florella by metahuman (a digital avatar created by Gusto Collective) artist MonoC, comprising six dance-based generative artworks that record and reimagine the global battle against COVID-19.
"As a metahuman artist, she's able to leverage data to engage the audience through the Corona Florella series on a collective discourse about the events and unprocessed emotions of the COVID-19 pandemic," says Gusto Luxe CEO Aaron Lau. "Metahuman art has immense potential: data is leveraged for facts, yet interpretation is only possible by the conscious mind."
Another Sotheby's find is NFT artist Shavonne Wong. Her Love Is Love comprises 500 tokens. Wong — who's exhibited at the 59th Venice Biennale, Art Dubai, SEA Focus and New York's Times Square — has been drawing the attention of a mainly youngish crowd of collectors with her moving, hyperrealistic portraits.
