Hackatao’s NFTs represent the crypto world
Hackatao is one of the 50 artists featured in “CRYPTO ART – Begins”, the first NFT book that tells the history and evolution of Crypto Art
“CRYPTO ART – Begins” tells the exciting beginnings and evolution of the Crypto Arte through the history and work of 50 of the best artists in the world who contributed to its birth and are still an active part of the present and future of its revolution with their projects NFT .
CRYPTO ART – Begins presents Hackatao
Hackatao is the union of two minds and artistic sensibilities that meet to give life to works that find a home in the digital universe.
Works that, starting from the subject to the stroke, are the total expression of the crypto language, where values of freedom and equality reign.
WHO IS HACKATAO?
If we were to assign a number to Hackatao to symbolize his essence, it would be the two of Yin and Yang that converge in the Tao, the totality from which all opposites are generated and in which they meet again to find their completeness.
Like Yin and Yang, the two components of Hackatao – S and N – met in 2007 in Milan to create an artistic duo that draws on the creative strength of two souls with different identities, personalities and styles.
In 2012 Hackatao left the city to find refuge in the meditative dimension of the mountains, maintaining the connection with the surrounding world thanks to technology.
The world of Crypto Art is a discovery. A place where you are free to experiment with your art surrounded by a community that follows the principles of transparency, democracy and collaboration.
In 2018 their first NFT , “Girl Next Door” , arrives on SuperRare .
THEIR ART
The style of the two halves of Hackato is the result of the convergence of the two artistic personalities, extremely recognizable and now cult of the NFT scene.
Hackatao’s first creation are the “Podmorks”, small totem creatures that are modeled in ceramic and decorated with designs and acrylic colors.
As muses and guides of the artistic universe, the “Podmorks” help Hackatao understand his potential and inspire him to expand his experimentation in digital, with 3D modeling.
The work with 3D allowed him to fully understand the aspects of digital creation and to move on to the production of canvases.
“Queen of Crypto” (2022), NFT of the series“Queens + Kings” created to celebrate Pride month is a powerful artistic statement.
The stroke and the decorative elements are rich in references to crypto culture, where the blockchain represents a tool for free expression and social improvement. The image of a queen of this new universe who is an icon of everything she represents for those who populate it.
The theme of the crypto utopia fits perfectly with that of the battle to support the rights of the LGBTQ + community which too often is treated as a utopia. The digital universe has shown that it is possible to reimagine a world with a different social structure that allows us to reconstruct our values.
THE CURATOR ELEONORA BRIZI SAYS ABOUT HACKATAO
Eleonora Brizi, curator and founder of Breezy Art , who curated for The NFT Magazine the selection of the 50 artists featured in the book “Crypto Art Begins” writes about Hackatao:
“Technology has always existed in Hackatao’s creative process. It has become an extension of their being artists, shortening the distance between mind and creation, taking their ideas and allowing them to ‘be the mirror of each other’ and to identify with the digital in order to be transformed ”.
