2025 DAILY ARTWORK: MORE VICE LESS VIRTUE

GAWD began offering new artwork as daily, 24-hour timed editions beginning on January 1, 2025. MORE VICE LESS VIRTUE is GAWD’S 325th release, and 5th daily. This approach allows accessibility for those who enjoy the art, but introduces scarcity through the limitation of time. Hand drawn in Procreate on iPad.

GAWD grew up influenced by the artwork of Haring, Warhol, Kruger, Wool and the politics of punk/hardcore music. With roots creating graffiti in the late 1990s followed by time shaping the Lowbrow Art movement, GAWD’s evocative work brings the street to the studio (and now the blockchain) through paint, typography, pop imagery, and punk sensibility. This is coupled with an activist streak of rebellion and dissent in the fight for our individual rights and freedoms against the fascist forces of our world.

In 2023, GAWD became the first artist in the world to begin releasing new work simultaneously across platforms as multi-chain timed editions (Objkt/Tezos, Foundation/Ethereum, and Exchange/Solana), allowing collectors to acquire new work on the blockchain of their choice.

A self-described “Pop Punk Artist” GAWD's repurposing of highbrow fashion, luxury, and images of power colliding with snarky lowbrow typography fuels bold, brash social commentary with a nihilistic bent. Each work challenges us to question ourselves, the world around us, and our place in it.
