This is the first time long-form generative art is minting directly on OpenSea.
DDUST by jiwa marks the first major collaborative release between Art Blocks and OpenSea, combining Art Blocks' on-chain generative technology with OpenSea's minting and distribution platform.
DDUST captures the raw beauty of the Marfa desert, transformed into an ever-shifting digital landscape.
Choose from 32 unique color palettes inspired by memories of the desert, and wait for dust storms that sweep through your artwork once or twice a year, triggered by live Ethereum blockchain data.
Every DDUST piece evolves uniquely in your collection, responding both to your aesthetic choices and the internal rhythm of the blockchain itself.
DDUST is the first Art Blocks collection to harness PostParams, the technology that transforms generative art into living, customizable experiences after mint. Once you own a DDUST piece, visit artblocks.io to customize your palette and participate in your artwork’s ongoing evolution.
Every palette tells a story. Jiwa spent his residency in Marfa translating the West Texas landscape into algorithmic textures. Each of the 32 color palettes comes from a specific memory and photograph - from iconic desert vistas to quiet back streets.
When you choose a palette, you're not just picking colors. You're connecting your digital piece back to the physical place where it was conceived, carrying a piece of that artistic journey with you.
