Appreciation comes from mysterious and usually forbidden sources but it is undoubtedly one of the most pleasurable things in life.

Real-time animation, variable size. Can you decode the message?
Piece created with Javascript, which poses a dimensional space in motion and in constant transmutation. The idea of the mysterious and the secret is also part of the evocative experience of the piece.
In generative art, artists play with randomization. We have to find the right balance between order and chaos. Too much order, and it’s not very interesting; too much chaos, and it looks messy. If noise is not fully random, it could contain information. This artwork contains a message… but it’s probably not where you might think.
👁️ Blind Gallery NFT #13 - The Message Is Not Where You Might Think
Behind the anon names and cartoon avatars many face their inner struggles in total secrecy, tormented by negative feelings, from FOMO to fear; a fire that is internalised to maintain composure to face the volatile seas and pirate waters.
Both the lack of light and the abundance of it can make us blind.
Unfold the mystery. Some elements might appear to stay the same, yet perspective always changes when things move. Focus and you'll find a place where even small questions are unraveled.
The universe is securely locked. There is not enough time to unlock its mysteries. We must, instead, make our own.
This piece was inspired by the countless ancient alien artifacts that populate the imagery of science-fiction. The only remnants of long forgotten civilizations, these devices are usually crucial to the plot of the story. I've always loved this trope of the genre.
No being ever truly consistent or the same. Pay attention to the movements and the rest will follow.
Create an evolving lock and unlock it.

“But she was inside the wonderful garden, and she could come through the door under the ivy any time, and she felt as if she had found a world all her own.” ― Frances Hodgson Burnett, The Secret Garden
This paper was discovered in 1947 on the northwestern shore of the Dead Sea. It belongs to a collection of illustrations, primarily fragmented, except for a few relatively intact ones. The papers are of extraterrestrial origin, and their intent is currently unknown.
👁️ Blind Gallery NFT #16 - Line by Line
A generative algorithm executed by hand. The instruction to execute this is fairly simple — keep drawing new lines as close to the previous one as possible without actually touching it — yet deceptively challenging to 𝚍𝚘.
"I've always been fascinated with early stereoscopic images and their uncanny realism for the time. Standing on the threshold of the metaverse, let’s look back one last time and see how far we've come." Best viewed with 3D red-cyan glasses.
Inspired by the anonymous nature of collectors in the NFT world. It pictures the elusive investor, ever watchful but restless, driven by the fear of an opportunity missed.
#6 - "A night-shrouded figure in paint. Again and again and never the same."
