A celebration of my 1 year in the Tezos art space, KINJO is an experiment in pure abstraction and randomness. With a simple grid at its core, this piece attempts to play with lively colors, completely unique variations, and host the nice surprises that randomness can bring. My intention when starting to work in the Tezos space was to play with the surrender of control in art, that idea had always fascinated me. In the beginning it was working with GAN, digitally painting a piece or processing my own photography, and sending it through my own frankensteined colab notebook. I was creating something and then trusting a process to rip it apart and create something new. I moved on to the Ganerations project, which was essentially gen art in layered pngs and processed through my GAN notebook. I found generative art and fxHash shortly after and have been incredibly thankful for the community here, as well as inspired every day by the new approaches I see from both new and established artists on the platform. I'm learning every day. Gen art is the perfect place for me to express myself and explore the themes of control and trust with my work, and I thank you all for following along and supporting my work :)
