The more people think about art NFTs the more they ask themselves "why not?". An art NFT can be as tangible as a piece of art in any other platform or medium. The reason people think that it is less important is that we are not accustomed to think about a digital piece as something "real", but a digital art piece has a set of formal rules depending on the platform that it's presented. If we can find what that set of rules are for an art NFT then we will have without a doubt a reason for it to exist as a separate form of art. Then, I will want an art NFT to live in my digital wallet as much as I will want a photobook, for example, to live on my bookshelf. That's the reason I think is important to think about the formal aspects of a specific form of art as NFT. In photography we know that a work needs to be contextualized, some times this context comes in the form of an elaborated story told around the photographs, but more effectively we've seen it in the construction of large bodies of work that connect a collection of photographs around a specific theme. The way we present those photographs can take several forms and at this stage of the art photography NFT we are still experimenting with different forms of presentation.

NFT art/photography aphorisms by Fernando Gallegos collection image

A series of aphorisms about the NFT as a form of art and the way photography works as a medium in it. In the description of each one of them there's a longer explanation text.

As a way of pushing myself to think hard about the conceptual side of what we are doing in the NFT space as artists, I decided to mint these short thoughts on different aspects of the NFT as an art form.
