Tonight is the biggest #cryptoart collaboration ever.(on  @niftygateway!)

This is a story about @trevorjonesart and @muratpak.

I keep hearing: how did such different artists collaborate?

What if they are not all that different? What if they are very much the same?

👇🎨👇
"The two of us couldn’t be more different;  @muratpak is a renowned designer, the founder of Undream and one of the prominent social media figures as the creator of  @archillect (2.2 million followers), a minimalist with an unknown identity..." -TJ

"...and I’m an artist, a messy and expressive painter who wears his heart on his sleeve and my life is pretty much an open book on Twitter. 🎨" - @trevorjonesart
"We're at the opposite sides of the creation palette, with Trevor. I'm as digital as I can be, and he's as physical as he can be with the process of creation. So this was also a very interesting challenge - to keep ourselves but create something together." -MP

"An ever bigger, more exciting, more engaging world...opened up for me. I felt rejuvenated because I was no longer creatively constrained to these seemingly arbitrary patterned squares." - @trevorjonesart

Who Is the Creator?

"One could quite easily argue that many of my past tutors, mentors and even the influential artists I’ve admired and studied over the years have all, in some way, played a part in the making of this piece." - @trevorjonesart
