This collection of 1/1 images by Chris James (articulate.eth / filmplusdigital) were made with the Melaleuca quinquenervia (Paperbark) tree, native to Eastern Australia.
The Paperbark is used in traditional medicine, cooking and building. In it's native environment it is a strong, useful tree covered in fine, soft bark.. This bark gives the distinctive, fingerprint-like quality to it's trunk.
"I have been fascinated by the unique bark patterns since childhood. These photos emerge from that fascination but also combine ideas from blockchain technology. Each photo is verifiably unique, similar and repetitive."
Bark Blocks is a fine-art project inspired by nature and blockchain technology.
Series One is a collection of 1/1 images by Chris James (articulate.eth / filmplusdigital) made with the Melaleuca quinquenervia (Paperbark) tree, native to Eastern Australia. Each series will be priced higher than the last.

"I have been fascinated by the unique bark patterns since childhood. These photos emerge from that fascination but also combine ideas from blockchain technology. Nature is the OG "generative artist". Each bark pattern is verifiably unique, similar and repetitive.
There is a fractal-like pattern to the photos that gives an experience reminiscent of watching an open fire. The more you look, the more you see. The volume of data contained in these natural blocks is immense and humbling."
