About

Artist Statement

I’ve had a lifelong interest in art and money. The two were always inseparable for me. Art is a way of doing things and money permits things to be done – they are elemental in our world. I use art as a way of meditating on value, trust, and Human potential. It was inevitable that I would use cryptocurrency as a major source of inspiration. As a new form of money, I believe it reflects our own evolution.
