Beacon The Sea #01 // The series Beacon by Peter Nitsch explores themes of identity, belonging, and desire. Drawing inspiration from maritime signals, a beacon traditionally guides seafarers to their destinations. Similar, within the urban landscape, bus stops function as beacons among the sea of concrete. After a long day or journey, spotting the beacon on the coastline evokes a sense of relief, and fills the heart with anticipation for home. At the core of the Beacon series lies photography, offering a distinctive 360º narrative journey that encompasses different media, presented in three parts - The Coast (mixed media), The Sea (photography), and The Wave (collectors reward airdrops). — The Beacon series, curated by Colonna Contemporary as part of the Narratiff exhibition, features 42 artworks. Five of these artworks include a unique signed single edition print, produced using T.R.A.C.E. technology by Transient Labs. T.R.A.C.E. provides a digital Certificate of Authenticity backed by blockchain technology and an NFC chip with its own digital wallet for security. The photograph "The Sea #01" is paired with a signed 29 x 20 cm single edition fine art print on Enhanced Matte Paper 230g using archival pigment ink, and a garland commonly hung on the mirror by bus drivers. — The Sea #01 Single edition Fine art print on Enhanced Matte Paper 230g 29 x 30 cm NFC chip + digital COA using T.R.A.C.E. by Transient Labs Launchpad: https://launchpad.transientlabs.xyz/nfts/ethereum/0xa48525ce04897fc7788c0766cabd5a5e935ff60b/1 Foundation: https://foundation.app/mint/eth/0xA48525cE04897fc7788C0766CaBD5A5E935FF60B/1 — Beacon, presented by Colonna Contemporary as part of the Narratiff exhibition: https://foundation.app/gallery/colonna-contemporary/exhibition/631 — This artwork listed is indeed authentic, created by, and copyright to lens-based artist Peter Nitsch; the purchase of this NFT is a purchase of the asset, not of the copyright.
