die before dying
A strong start after minting for only 20 days in OBJKT, Kro Beluss released their series egalitarian???. In a series of collage portraits, Kro asks, “what is the concept of equality like today?” What is the answer? Is it complex? Comprised of predators and prey? Is it not possible between competing ideas like industry and nature? What shape, what color shows equality? Is it human? If so which? Kro may make a statement that it is ugly and messy to be equal or that it does not exist and is a fantasy based on these bizarre portraits.

The childhood dream
Iranian artist Ghazaleh’s art captures a child-like wonderment many adults strive to hold on to. Her paintings move as if they were animated pages in a children’s book. Her Xcollabz drop The Childhood Dream portrays her dream of becoming friends with a star, or alien; while The Doll tells the story of a discarded doll that is cared for by a friendly spider. Each one captures nostalgic magic many have trouble holding onto as they grow older but feels natural in Ghazaleh’s work.

You can feel Nathalie’s paintings. Each stroke or etch in her paintings comes from strong emotion, and without even knowing the context you get a sense of anger, frustration, pain and also healing. Her use of color is deliberate and even her colorful paintings can convey a process of dealing with pain, as she does in Painful past. Nathalie does offer a possibility for hope, somewhere, in Contemplation of the everlasting cycle, somewhere in universe, celebrating the beginning of the new spring. One can hope when all appears hopeless.

BRUISE
ALARM
Ad Infiinitum
Visio Cosmica Sceptrum
Curandero has developed a set of different series showcasing a variety of styles at their disposal. Mixing motion, glitch, doodle, and creative coding could be from a different artist. Curandero’s use of glitches in their series Punk Times creates a drip paint effect, showcasing the violently aggressive times many of us feel we are experiencing. The brutality is alarming but the resulting art is beautiful all the same.

Atomic Mushroom
Surrealist painter Martín La Spina takes the audience into a psychedelic dreamscape filled with ethereal spaces where everything resembles something familiar in a bizarre manner. In Transmigration of souls, Martín paints a white heron comprised of souls migrating to whatever the afterlife may be in his mind. Much of his work manages to convey the relationship between us and nature, as seen in Seed-man where a man becomes a tree symbolizing the circle of life our universal connection in our biology and fate; one will not survive without the other.
Each UNDRGRND DIGS will feature artists our curators have purchased for the UNDRGRND Collection.
