Bio

0xG is a pseudonymous artist working between conceptual and digital art through the technical exploration of blockchain as a medium. Their practice treats the smart contract itself as the artistic instrument, producing minimal, systems-driven works that exist directly on-chain, where visual form often serves an underlying conceptual or computational structure.

In Owned (2022), 0xG reworked the ERC-721 token standard so that an NFT can be lent or held for a limited time without the holder becoming its recorded owner.^,

In Truth Oracle, participants minted soulbound tokens backing Yes or No on an outcome, with an external oracle eliminating the losing side every 3.5 days until a single holder could claim a transferable 1/1 called Truth.^, The round ended without a winner, and after it closed the verified contract was found to contain an unprotected function, deliberately placed, that could have set the outcome of any round. In Unlike, 0xG's first work on the social platform Rodeo, the artist minted 36,526 editions that cannot be collected by minting but can each be burned once a day over the next 100 years, with the last person to burn theirs acquiring it as a 1/1.

Contact, a smart contract recording an imagined exchange of messages with an advanced alien intelligence on the Ethereum blockchain, was submitted to “CONTACT ATTEMPT – the 50th Anniversary of the Arecibo Message”, organized by the Herbert W. Franke Foundation, which gave it a special award. 0xG has also collaborated with other artists, including Del on Find Balance, a dynamic NFT that changes pose and can be fused with other tokens in the collection, and with KARBORN and SHL0MS on Unseen, released on the MOON:BEAM collection, the first ERC7160 project on Base.
