"Two of Two"

I have been thinking of ways to use blockchain and NFTs as a medium that enhances my physical work and expands the connection between the artist and collector.

I have drawn twins of the physical image, in colored pencil and ink, on paper. The drawings are not meant to be perfect copies. Animating these two images together produces a third and final digital artwork that can only be sold as an NFT.

Finally, the purpose of twin drawings is so the collector can receive a physical piece, and I can keep one for my archives and exhibitions. The artwork split up geographically brings myself and the collector closer to the work.

These "Two of Two" art pieces were intended for the Tigerbob Bestiary collection from the beginning. The drawing was started in June 2021 and set aside for several years so I could ruminate on the concept and complete the art piece properly.

Works related and preceding this pieces are "Iteration 0" for PROOF Grails I and "Grelysian Icon #26" for Lucréce.

Of course I have a lot more to explore and discover with this concept and I hope to hear more thoughts from others about bridging the gap between digital and physical objects & experiences.
