Nine artists, nine different approaches to digital art. This original NFT Weekly feature captures a moment in the early NFT art movement, bringing together artists who were creating, experimenting and finding their place in a rapidly changing digital world. Artist: Sam Spratt X Profile: @SamSpratt Artwork: Infinity Ceremony Sam Spratt has created a striking scene. Two primal figures, reminiscent of our ape ancestors, engage in a gentle exchange inside a cave. The male offers the female figure something that appears to be of great value, possibly water or food, inside a skull. The earthy tones surrounding this scene bring a sense of ancient intimacy, making us feel as though we are looking back at the very roots of human connection. The natural hues and cave-like setting transport us to a time before civilization, when survival and companionship were vital.

Nine artists, nine different visions of digital art. This original NFT Weekly feature captures a moment when artists were exploring new ways to create, share and collect art online. Artist: Arya Bima X Profile:  @rearyabaim Artwork: Present This quirky piece, by Arya, has a fantastical quality to it like a more classical version of the Surrealist Salvador Dali. The details are delicate and beautiful, the brains in a covered dish and the little yellow butterfly, for example, have a natural history element to them, which is both whimsical and interesting. This is a very seamless work and the muted tones and creative imagery make it a wonderful artwork to view.   Artist: Oveck  X Profile:  @oveck Artwork: Balance Oveck's piece is such a beautiful work, with such a lovely colour palette. The central figure appears to be melting or succumbing to the power emanating from the omnipotent hand from above.  The two figures behind have an alie...
