WITH THE SEGMENTATION SERIES, LEROY BROTHERS TAP INTO BOTH THE CONCEPT OF UNICITY AND VALUATION OF ART THROUGH NFTS (NON-FUNGIBLE TOKENS).
THE ARTWORKS OF THE SERIES ARE CREATED WITH RESULTS OF THE ARTISTS’ LONG LASTING PARTICIPATIVE ART PROJECT WITNESS YOUR WORLD (FIRST VERSION 2012).
ALGORITHMS AND A.I. RECOGNIZE OBJECTS AND SUBJECTS FROM THE PICTURES USED IN THE RESULTS, THEN SEGMENT PIECES OF CONTENT, WHICH ARE SAVED IN SEPARATE FILES. THESE SEGMENTED IMAGES ARE USED TO CREATE SEMI-ABSTRACT DIGITAL COMPOSITIONS: SEGMENTED REALITIES.
EACH OF THE NEW DIGITAL COMPOSITIONS OF THE SEGMENTATION SERIES IS TOKENIZED AND BECOMES A NFT, WHICH OWNS ITS PROPER IDENTITY, BUT ALSO ITS OWN AUTHENTICITY AND TRACEABILITY.
THE COLLECTION HAS BEEN CREATED AS A RESPONSE TO THE TUMULTUOUS TIMES WE GO THROUGH TODAY, WHERE UNEXPECTED EVENTS FORCE US TO SELF-ISOLATE FOR AN UNDEFINED AMOUNT OF TIME. THE PANDEMIC EMPHASIZES AND GENERALIZES THIS MOOD. HOWEVER, FOR MANY PEOPLE, SOLITUDE IS AN UBIQUITOUS STATE TO COPE WITH DURING THEIR LIFE. WITH LONESOME LONER, LEROY BROTHERS OPTED TO SUPPORT SOLOMON LAB.
SOLOMON LAB BRINGS PEOPLE FROM DIFFERENT BACKGROUNDS TO THE FOREFRONT, TO BUILD BRIDGES AMONG COMMUNITIES, AND WORK TOGETHER TO CREATE A SAFE ENVIRONMENT FOR THE EXCHANGE OF IDEAS AND DIALOGS REGARDING THE ISSUES THAT MATTER TO US AND AFFECT OUR LIVES.
TOGETHER WE BELIEVE THAT WE CAN FUNCTION IN A SUSTAINABLE WORLD WHERE EACH TYPE OF PRODUCT HELPS A DIFFERENT PROJECT.
THE “BETWEEN AIR” PRÊT-À-CROCHER ART COLLECTION HAS BEEN CREATED AS AN ATTEMPT TO RAISE AWARENESS OF HOW WE STILL EASILY POLLUTE THE AIR WE ALL NEED TO BREATHE, AND ULTIMATELY TO SURVIVE.
WE SHOULD ALL STAND STILL FOR A MOMENT AND QUESTION WHAT CAN BE DONE ON A PERSONAL LEVEL TO RESPOND TO THIS MAJOR ISSUE.
WE PLEDGE WITH THIS COLLECTION TO DONATE A PART OF EVERY SALE TO THE SIERRA CLUB TO SUPPORT THEIR VISION AND MISSION. SIERRA CLUB WORKS FOR CLEAN AIR, SAFE WATER, AND LAND PROTECTION.
WITNESS YOUR WORLD LIKES TO INVITE YOU TO JOIN THE COMMUNITY TO SHARE YOUR VISION OF A SPECIFIC TOPIC.
