RE-VS. is an artistic project that explores the relationship between the physical and virtual worlds, between public and private space, between the collective and the individual, through the modifications that one undergoes as a consequence of actions that occur in the other.

A way to establish relationships between Plastic Art and Digital Art by performing a performance broadcast via streaming. The resulting mural reflects the impact generated by the digital market on a physical piece.

PHYSICAL AND DIGITAL PROCESS

The initial design takes the word versus, a Latin participle whose Anglo-Saxon meaning is to show contrast or confrontation between two entities, concepts or things.
A 12 x 12 m mural with this word is the starting point of the project.
The same digital design is divided into a 7 X 5 grid of individual and unique sectors.

DIGITAL WORK

The design becomes a 5-minute video loop that begins and ends at the same point as the physical artwork.
In between, the pieces undergo formal and chromatic alterations that continually generate different compositions. Each NFT is a certified .mov file with a smart contract acquired through the platform Obilum.art

PRESENTATION IN ARCO

The project was presented in the context of the ARCOmadrid 2023 fair. During all the ARCO days, Boa Mistura remained on the wall 24 hours a day, to proceed with the live deletion of the NFTs sold through the Obilum sales platform, simultaneously with the exact moment of acquisition.

We created a public streaming connection through our YouTube channel, and an installation of 35 synchronized monitors showing the original NFTs that could be seen at the PONCE + ROBLES stand, which remained active during the five days of the fair.
