My First NFT Collection, Unveiled in New York City

In 2021, I have created a video of what could be my paintings in a digital era, in 2024 I minted this video as my first NFT.

At a time when the art world was split between tradition and innovation, I found myself asking a new question—how could the soul of oil painting translate into pixels, code, and the blockchain?

Fast forward to 2022, and my digital piece was selected to be showcased at the NFT NYC event—one of the largest global stages for crypto art, technology, and creative disruption.

This page is a tribute to that moment, and to the bridge I’ve built between physical and digital art.

Title: Digital Rituals

Medium: NFT / Digital Painting

Blockchain: Ethereum

Year: 2021

The piece explores the tension between ancient symbols and futuristic mediums. Echoes of ritual masks, organic flesh, and abstract shapes collide in a digital canvas. For me, this wasn’t just an artwork—it was a confrontation. A confession. A question about permanence in a world made of data.

The Story Behind It

I wrote in my journal:

“I entered the NFT world not because it was trending, but because I needed to understand where the future of creativity was heading. Could something born of algorithms still carry soul? Could a painting be sacred even without a canvas?”

This was my provocation—how to protect the soul of the brushstroke in a space that doesn’t know gravity.

In Digital Rituals, I merged have picked up my first ever oil portrait painting with oil textures and brush logic with the abstract logic of 3D modeling and glitch aesthetics. It’s about transformation and identity, in a language that is both new and old.
