MAD about crypto street-art
Description
A MAD 1:1 - Pixelated Streets by Killstrike https://twitter.com/Ki11_5trike
In this project, Killstrike delves into the fusion of traditional street art and the emerging world of NFTs. Drawing inspiration from the resilience of street art and its ability to evoke reactions, names, and visually appealing elements on walls, the artist contends that NFTs embody a similar spirit in the digital realm.
The central focus of the project is a mural featuring a pixelated skull wearing a robe, created using the dither method. This technique pays homage to the gritty and rebellious essence of street art. Accompanying the mural is the bold graffiti message ""NFT’s R Dead,"" challenging the notion of the demise of NFTs and asserting their continued significance as a powerful means of expression.
The mural serves as a visual commentary on the parallelism between traditional street art and NFTs. The pixelated skull symbolizes the raw and rebellious nature of street art, while the graffiti message provocatively challenges the narrative surrounding NFTs. This juxtaposition aims to provoke thought on the enduring nature of art, whether it adorns a city wall or resides on the blockchain.
