Description

A 3D Model created in Photogrammetry - gifted to Artists in the 6th Cohort of the VCA Residency, to our Mentors and the VCA organising team. Released to Collectors 2nd August 2023. This monumental model, which can be projected in AR into a real-world environment, compares the relative volume of electricity consumed by a single transaction, on each of six blockchains and Visa. If Hedera HBAR diameter is the width of her eye then… Solana diameter = length of tablet Visa diameter = width of her waist Tezos diameter = length of her right arm ETH diameter = half the distance from her heel to the top of her head. Cardano diameter = full distance from her heel to the top of her head. BTC diameter = 5.5 times the entire height of the statue. Curators, Gallerists, Artists and Collectors who are already familiar with our work will know our passion is for the preservation and conservation of the planet and all interconnected species. But we’re also passionate advocates for blockchain digital art and this genesis 3D Model from our ‘Slow Shifts’ collection created for our inclusion in the 6th Cohort of the VCA Residency, posits that without taking notice and action, the potential outcome is clear. The scale of each of the blockchain’s energy consumption was released in a paper by University College London in 2023 https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4324137 Our piece shows this relative scale against an iconic landmark, America’s Statue of Liberty. We chose the Statue of Liberty (being internationally recognisable) to give relative scale between the spheres. For example, if HBAR is the size of her eye (as represented by the HBAR sphere) then BTC, relatively, is 5 times the height of the Statue.
