For some time Cryptic Gallery has been hosting mural events in its backyard. Converting the mostly derelict walls into canvases to be painted by a multitude of talented artists. Preparing each wall for the next mural event was always a bittersweet moment. Painting over these works from the previous show felt like a crime, even though we knew we were preparing for another amazing artist to paint. We wanted to find a way to have these murals live on. More than just as photos. NFTs gave the perfect platform to not only have these works live forever in the metaverse but to create new opportunities to support and fund artists so they can keep creating. This drop is the inauguration of a new and exciting chapter for Cryptic, something we have been anticipating to be a part of for some time.
