Reflective Writing: The “Art” in Crypto Art

I have to confess that I was so nervous every time when I was asked what NFT is or how to join NFT for the past few months since I have started this project.

Doubtlessly, this is a big question, and as everybody knows, what is behind the blockchain is a complex algorithm that 99% person would never figure out. However, I felt so pressured when I have to provide a perfect and integral answer for the question because I don’t want to let them down. 

But why should everybody know everything about NFT? 

I still don’t know how these stock works, but I buy my breakfast smoothly every day and could appreciate the artworks well in galleries. The technology thing would never be the star in the art world unless some artists wanna create some pieces about that. Art is always concerned with feeling, aesthetics is always about what we sense. It is regret that we turned away from Crypto Art just because we don’t know blockchain, besides the squares is never the thing. 

For now, I’d like to leave the techs away, focus on the art itself. What Crypto Art could be different from traditional Art? What we could bring to Crypto Art in this era? As an art lover, what can I bring to my stakeholders?

However, the stakeholders won’t change under this situation, because my role is more like an art dealer, I need to associate with artists and buyers and relevant art workers at the same time.

Fortunately, I feel more confident about what I am doing.
