as a digital-native collectible My background is hand-drawn illustration, so pixel art felt like the opposite discipline. There are no loose lines to hide behind, just a grid where every square is a decision, and I love working inside that limit. These are the pieces where the squares carry the whole image.
Every city has a symbol, and Berlin's is the bear. The Bear Club is a pixel-art take on that symbol. The mascot CryptoBär was created for METAMORPH, a project about an NFT content and asset platform for the metaverse. The result was a character system: one recognisable face that every artist on the platform could dress, remix and make their own, mint as an NFT, and even produce as a physical collectible.
