The imaginary lines between gaming and fine art are two sides of the same coin. At its core, art is play; it is playing with your technical skills for the main purpose of expression and communication. In fact, the Greek word for art, as well as technology, is the same: "techni." The creative process typically is a playful art (techni) process.
So art has always been a game. Additionally, viewing art and seeking art is an interactive game of observation as we move about the world. Art, therefore, is a game of understanding and appreciation. Each viewer inherently decides, "I want to understand this, or I don't." And "I appreciate this, or I don't."
On top of all this, when factoring in the art market, which is full of all sorts of sales strategies, promotional maneuvers--and the like--it adds an economic component to the game. Some win more, some lose more; that's the nature of games. Then adding NFT functionality, the art becomes a literal playable game piece on so many more levels. The possibilities are as boundless as the imagination.
On MakersPlace, users can create, discover, sell, and collect truly unique and authentic digital art. The team is passionate about the way blockchain technology is transforming our understanding of digital ownership and champions creativity in the growing crypto art community.
