The Goal
This is the first time in history that a fine art -mouth painted- generative project will be created where the physical art is transformed from a mouth painted canvas into digital art and connected to the Solana Blockchain.
The Artist
Cruise is the artist. He experienced a spinal cord injury which left him paralyzed from the shoulders down at the age of 19. Not wanting to be held back by his disability, Cruise has since become an incredibly talented fine artist creating all of his pieces with nothing more than the use of his mouth.
The Art
It starts with a bright and colorful concept inspired by the nautical upbringing of Cruisey Babbyyyy, where his namesake was earned by sailing the Caribbean for most of his young life.
These pieces start as an idea and flow from the mind, through the mouth and onto the canvas creating incredible mouth painted masterpieces that are now making their way to the digital art realm, as seen with our very first Curious Creature, Mala!
The Project
We are very excited to share details about the Curious Creature Collective Genesis Drop.
CCC is a project focused on generative works of art stored immutably on the Solana blockchain. Solana is an energy efficient, high throughput, fast, and secure blockchain built for global scale.
Our Genesis collection featuring the very first Curious Creature – Mala – is a generative artwork created by Quadriplegic Mouth Painting Artist Cruise Bogle (featured at Art Basel Miami 2021), and inspired by the concept of high effort physical art, transformed to the digital realm creating a generative collection of 1/1 PfP style art pieces.
