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...

A selection of nine artists from the early days of NFT Weekly, each exploring digital art in their own way. Together, they offer a glimpse into a rapidly developing creative movement. Artist: Evo X Profile:  @MadeInCuracao Artwork: Krioyo 07 This piece by Evo is such a stunning image! The regal pose of this beautiful older lady, with her floral headdress and decorative costume, has Freida Kahlo vibes. The gorgeous blue sky, and the enormous succulents, give the piece an exotic air. The viewer is drawn into the image through the vibrant colours and gorgeous subject. It is a celebration of the ordinary and the extraordinary at the same time. This piece is part of a collection and the other pieces are well worth checking out as well.       Artist: Frank Moth X Profile:  @Frank_Moth Artwork: Meet me in Paradise This piece is such a whimsical image, it is surreal and yet aesthetically it has quite a traditional feel to it.

Nine artists who were creating and experimenting during an important period in the history of digital art. This original NFT Weekly feature brings their work together in one snapshot of the time. Artist: Dead Seagull X Profile:  @dead_seagull_ Artwork: Entity Dead Seagull's work is always masterfully created and this piece  is no exception. There is such stylish simplicity in the fluid lines and the stylised figure. The heavy looking hands, holding the female form, seem to grip and pinch in a possessive way. the finger tips of the perpetrator and the neck of the victim are bloodied.  Something sinister is going on here! The beautiful use of colour is reminiscent of the darker illustrations by Kay Nielsen because of the skillful use of black against earthier tones. The feathery garment gives the impression of a showgirl costume and the strange headdress and elongated neck have alien like qualities. The viewer is both entranced and a little bemused by the narrative of this ...

Before the NFT world had fully taken shape, artists were already exploring what digital ownership could mean for their work. Here are nine artists who were part of that early conversation. Artist: Rodine Lee X Profile:  @Rodrine_Lee Artwork: Untitled Rodine's artwork is gritty and cool in a way that reminds the viewer of street artists such as Fin DAC and Tristan Eaton.  The female figure is exotic and beautiful, her tattoos and casual cigarette give her plenty  of hipster appeal. Her serpentine eyes and kabuki mask convey a theatrical narrative making the piece both compelling and glamorous. The muted tones add to the contemporary feel, giving an overall impression that this young woman is too cool for school.  Artist: Marleen X Profile:  @StudioIrida Artwork: Looking for My Heart in the Wrong Places This stunning piece draws the viewer in with the beautifully evocative expression on the subjects face. Her iconic pout, which is a trademark feature in all of Mar...
