artist:
Ripcache

Ripcache's artwork explores the confluence of technology, surveillance, and identity, providing an insightful perspective on blockchain's influence on privacy and anonymity. Drawing from a 1-bit palette and pixelated aesthetics, his work pays tribute to the origins of computing while championing limitations as a driving force for creativity. Each hand-drawn piece carries the artist's distinctive touch, underscoring the harmonious interplay between human inventiveness and machine capabilities. At the heart of his oeuvre is the omnipresent CCTV camera, which symbolizes both the pervasiveness of surveillance and the fluidity of online identities. As a pseudonymous artist, ripcache delves into themes of privacy, digital impermanence, and the ever-shifting balance between personal data collection and transparency. His commitment to on-chain art showcases a desire to create works that transcend technological novelty, while concurrently addressing the human experience in an increasingly digital world.
