There is an art revolution taking place and ‘We Are The Art’ is a project exploring the edges of that revolution.

As art comes onchain and redefines the realities of ownership and provenance, We Are The Art is an experiment with a profound idea: the community of collectors is what makes onchain art unique.

We Are The Art is a social experiment—even a social game—that creates an environment for collaborating to create digital art that tells the story of this onchain revolution in a way that connects with the highly initiated and curious newcomers alike.

Let’s look at the first We Are The Art piece to make this easier to experience:

The Mona Lisa was chosen as the most iconic painting and expression of Fine Art. But do you notice anything? Let's take a closer look...

The We Are The Art version is drawn by the names of the owners of the piece.

As @chriscocreated likes to say, “you become the art.” The community of collectors that mint the art are what makes the piece unique. This is a profound visual statement of the revolution taking place in ownership and onchain art creation. And we are creating it together.

We believe We Are The Art is a project that can help the outsiders and uninitiated to onchain art understand the concepts and make onboarding easier. Outsiders are likely able to grasp the illustration of ownership onchain with a classic work of art drawn and represented by the names of the owners.

We are also telling a story about the culture and narrative of art as we progress month-by-month. The Mona Lisa was the place to start with an iconic painting representing fine art. Our second piece is an iconic piece of NFT art. The juxtaposition of the Mona Lisa and a Cyberpunk speaks loudly. Our third piece is an iconic piece of street art. And our fourth piece is an iconic statue. These four pieces weave together iconic pieces of visual art in different categories to tell the story of art, history, and the revolution taking place in onchain art. Where we go from here, is up to you!

Each month, we gather on a call to release and celebrate the next image and to discuss the upcoming edition. These engaging and fun calls bring humanity to our digital art experience. It allows us one hour in a fast-paced space to slow down just for a moment to think about and discuss art and narrative and culture. You’ll be surprised how much goes into choosing the next piece.
