BYMA

BYMA is the alter-ego of artist Armaghan Fatemi, who collaborates with her partner Michael Elsdörfer in the web3 space. Combining their passions for the arts and technology, they are interested in generative art, dynamic NFTs, and art that employs meaningful smart contract mechanisms.

Armaghan is a conceptual artist who has worked across a variety of media. She is particularly passionate about textiles and has recently focused on traditional carpet weaving techniques from Iran, the country of her birth. Invisible Hands, her installation and documentary exploring the labor conditions in the production of these carpets, was part of a recent exhibition at Quad Gallery in Derby.

Michael is a software developer who, tired of funneling bytes in and out of databases, found a welcome reprieve in creative coding.
