Hello and welcome to The Culture Project. We are here with the next iteration of the fxhash: Weekly Roundup. There is a live event this week in Lisbon called feels like home. It's a partnership with fxhash and the Non Fungible Conference. You can mint live at the event if you hold a ticket. A certain amount are reserved for the live mint and the rest will have a public mint on fxhash. Three very talented artists are releasing projects and it has a beautiful message along with the event.
** Something I missed. This project starts on Monday and not Wednesday now. The schedule had changed and I didn’t realize it.**
“Home is more than a physical location. It's an ever-shifting sense of belonging encompassing the memories, experiences, and entanglements we make throughout our lives.”
There is a lot more to the message, but I thought that was a great snippet of it. Please follow these links to the fxhash website that highlights the three artists. And the main website to the event, feels like home. There is one other project coming out this week that I thought I would highlight. I’ll post it after the three feels like home projects down below.
Lets dive in.

Before the storm by Leonardo Solaas

I don’t think I’ve seen to many generative landscape projects that look like this. All the elements together in this make it feel very unique. I really like the message along with it by the artist.
“This is a work about the moment when the forces of nature are gathered, but not yet released.
It is about the need for home and shelter, in tension with the need to go outdoors.
It is about stillness and anticipation.
It is about the possibility of emptiness in a world with too many things.
It is about the unsettling closeness of beauty and danger.
It is about climate and the possibility of impending catastrophe.
It is about atmosphere and all that hangs in the air but remains unseen and unsaid.
It is about clouds and complex transient weightless architectures in the sky and the secrets of form without substance.
It is also about the algorithmic simulation of traditional media, like printmaking or ink drawing, and bridging the gap between two ages of art that often look like strangers to each other.”

A beautiful generative landscape project that has a very abstract feel to it. It’s the moment when you are laying in a field or on a hillside watching a beautiful view.
“Home is more than where we live, it is where we belong. It is where we are safe. Home does not belong to us, we belong to it. As I stand in wildflower meadows and watch the sun cross mountain peaks, I am home.”

Another beautiful abstract project that resembles tree rings. Another point of view about home and what it can mean to each person. I really enjoyed seeing what each artist had to say about their project and how they express that in their art.
“When I first learned of tree rings as a kid, I thought that a tree meticulously recorded its own life story, similar to how my parents marked my height with dates on the wall behind our kitchen door. Next to each date, there was a small description, some were milestones but most were mundane. We’ve moved across an ocean since then, but tree rings always remind me of my first home, of how my parents cherished and celebrated the small things in life.”

Mints on Thursday - 200 pieces in the set.

This last one is not apart of the live mint event, just a really cool project coming out the day after. This artist has a few other projects that are similar to this one, but each one is very unique from the other. One of the things I love about their work. They can have a definite style, but they also have so much depth.
