DEVOID #021 | 'An Obsession.'

Part of the DEVOID collection | 24-bit pixel art meditations on space, higher dimensions and psychedelia.

DEVOID 021 is a key piece, in that it is the final 'episode' of chapter 1. In this artwork we round out the arc from the first chapter - with REX having encountered '1', it is now obsessed with escaping its 2-D pixel world and begins to dream in 3-Dimensions.

The style of this piece comes from a combination of old Hithcock films, 40s/50s sitcoms, minimalist art and the Atari 2600 games of my youth. By far the most ambitious piece so far, DEVOID 021 puts the earliest pieces in fresh context and helps to shape REX as an actual character. REX is becoming far more than just a few pixels...

Also includes UNLOCKABLE CONTENT:

1 x poem 'BEYOND THE PIXEL FIELD'

1 x Main Artwork - 5000x5000 PNG of the 24-bit still piece that accompanies (and features in) the video. Inspired by minimalism, film noir and the Atari 2600 games of my youth.

DEVOID is the first of four chapters that comprise a metaphysical novella, told in pictures, about an intelligent being that finds itself trapped upon a 2D canvas.

Look out for the canvases with a black box on them - that's our protagonist, REX.

You'll notice its presence on our website as the same 'character' also features in our project, PERIVALE.

It's a unique time to be releasing art and there's something truly exciting about being able to have stories that cross media like this.

Each NFT is 1 of 1 and we think of each one as being a piece of art, a part of a meta-story and an investment in the future of HYPERREAL. As we rise, so will our collectibles.
