Cloud Wallets: Ascension

Considering the demand for interoperability across the metaverse and decentralized applications, digital wallets have evolved towards digital identities in the web3 environment. In particular, the permanence aspect of the blockchain and digital wallets promotes conceptual ideas of futurism and posthumanism.

Cloud Wallet Series falls within the crypto art group show “In-Valuable : The Short History Of Crypto Art” curated by Marlène Corbun and Fanny Lakoubay and is part of a larger exploration of “Art & Currency” on the laCollection platform. The recent cryptocurrency boom offers a conceptual base for contemporary artists to question and expose the intricate systems of power behind money while also using blockchain technology as a creative medium. Collectively, the exhibited works intend to challenge the complicated relationship between art and currency.
