Proof of Work is a series of manually generated images. Each graphic pixel corresponds with one keypress, resulting in images where visual density is directly correlated with physical effort. The artist attempts to enter colour values randomly, but the difficulty of this task results in patterns in the image, which attest to the manual process of creation. The images were generated daily, the pixel canvas size doubling each day until one image could not be completed in one day.

Description

Precise measures of abstract artistic effort.

Each graphic pixel corresponds to one keypress or tap, resulting in images where visual density is directly correlated with manual effort.

Series begin with a 1x1 pixel canvas, which doubles daily until one image cannot be completed in one day. Each token is a unique 1/1 minted on a custom contract with a hard-coded limit of 50 tokens. Each token includes the image, and a video documenting its production.
