Carbonated Credit III by Ghost in the WiFi

The fact that minting NFTs can consume a lot of energy and become harmful to the environment has sparked many controversies. Climate change is said to be the biggest challenge for our generation and generations to come. Thankfully, there are already energy-savvy protocols and rely on newer techniques that are neutral for the environment (e.g., Tezos). The most significant player in the space in terms of protocols (Ethereum) has also announced changes in its technology roadmap to becoming less harmful for the world. While the whole clean NFT movement started, I came across an artist that found a unique way to promote carbon neutrality through her work. Her name is Ghost in the Wifi, and she is the “Carbonated Credit” collection mastermind.

Originally from Texas, she currently lives in New Mexico and enjoys different art forms such as painting, sculpture, and photography. Like many other crypto artists, her journey began in March. Nevertheless, she has been creating original artworks for years.

When asked about the motivation behind his “Carbonated Credit III” piece, she explained an original process that captures matter decomposition. Ghost in the WiFi finds this very pleasant and enjoys expressing feelings through abstraction. In her own words:

I’m always motivated to experiment and create work. I frequently take photos of my compost because I think it tends to be a pleasant abstract composition of organic matter. I lean more towards abstraction because I feel it is a closer form of expressing feelings and ideas for myself.

It all starts in the kitchen, where she keeps a compost bowl in the same place where she cooks. The process consists of recording through photographs the looks of the matter as it transforms.
