Desire Path #12
Hello friends, welcome to another issue of Desire Path — a newsletter for photographers and photography aficionados interested in NFTs and web3.
Two Crossed Paths
“Non-violent changes” by Olia Kowal experiments with physical prints in an attempt to ponder upon free will and identity outside social norms.
“FLWR BLCKS” by Joe Horner is a series of frozen water blocks that preserve the beauty of the flowers.
Three Photo Projects
“Pretty Mundane” by Andy Feltham captures the elegance of the pedestrian.
“Psychedelic Pioneers” by Dean Chamberlain. A series of photographs shot over three decades by the father of light painting photography. In it, Chamberlain illuminates the pioneers behind the psychedelic movement.
“But That’s So Far Away” by Alyssa Kazew. The collection is inspired by internet meme culture and pop culture icons like SpongeBob SquarePants. An expression of sex positivity, self-deprecating humour, and hedonistic joy.
Four Art Projects
“Chimera” by Michael Kozlowski. “Chimera is a mutation, its genetics a merging of past and present.” It is rooted in traditional still life and extends beyond it with the new medium of on-chain generative art. Chimera encapsulates where we came from and where we are going.
“I GLOW” by digital artist Invisible Girl, who is trying to merge with nature and disappear.
“Big eyes” by Paulina Gora. A window into childhood memories and adventures.
“Guava Girls” hand-drawn by artist Arty Guava. Guava Girls wants to help you retreat from the chaos of Web3. Their “Care-to-Earn” community is about working together to find balance by taking part in introspective activities.
