Pixel Pusher // Crypto Winter
Pixel Pusher // Crypto Winter 2022
New Media Artists had an explosion of interest in our medium due to the invention of NFTs. I love the obsession over .jpegs, right-clicking, and digital labor rights. My mind feels infected with the desire to show a deconstruction of what goes into creating pixel-based art. This is my attempt to describe my 20-year studio process as it appears in my dreams. Deconstructing the artist’s studio and laying bare its instruments, formats, and physical constraints have always been core to locating the site of the artist’s labor in their artwork, a process only made less clear in regards to AI and Generative art. I would argue that nothing and everything has changed. My virtual studio was rendered over a cornfield in a 3D game engine. In my culture, we only tell stories when it is their time to not tempt the corn spirits lest they lose focus on creating a good harvest.
