How minting works

Users connect their wallet using the Connect Wallet button in the header once minting is live.

Whitelist and public sale phases are managed by signatures and on-chain checks to ensure fairness.

Mint pricing and limits per address are enforced by the smart contract to maintain integrity.

Minting is on the Base blockchain, using USD Coin (USDC) for payments to minimize fees and ensure stability. A small amount of gas is needed on Base (Base ETH) to complete the transaction.

Minting is best performed on a desktop browser with MetaMask or a similar wallet extension for optimal experience. Alternatively, if you're on mobile, open the wallet's built-in browser (e.g., MetaMask mobile app) to mint directly.

Spectra

Spectra #9

Spectra is a study of matter revealed as light.

Each work is rendered as a long-exposure spectral field — a restrained, museum-grade image where compounds and materials appear as bands and lines held against deep charcoal. These are not diagrams. There are no axes, grids, labels, or legends. Only the quiet evidence of a signature.

Across the collection, four regimes are held in tension: hydrocarbons, nuclear fuels, clean-energy materials, and metal alloys. The politics is embedded in comparison, not slogans — warmth versus precision, diffusion versus containment, abundance versus legacy — expressed only through light.

Remanence

Remanence #1

Remanence is a study of the human face recorded as light over time.

Each work depicts a recognisably human facial form rendered as a sparse spatial point cloud and subjected to long‑exposure spectral recording. Motion across the exposure produces temporal echoes — red‑shift and blue‑shift afterimages that reveal the face at different moments in time.

These are not portraits. They are residual impressions: what remains of form once time, movement, and wavelength have been allowed to interfere.

Caustic

Caustic #60
Caustic #29
Caustic #41
Caustic #24

Caustic is a study in purity under assault. Minimal geometric forms — circles, squares, bars, planes — placed against soft neutral fields. Perfect shapes eroded by chemical light, corroded edges, pigment burn, structural decay, and caustic dissolution.

Every token is a meditation on tension: order versus breakdown, geometry versus entropy, serenity versus corrosion. A single shape becomes a battlefield for chemical destruction.
