DreamSketchbook: Astral Temple of the 38th neighborhood.GLB

"the mojoritarian culture of my country is that art is something for an elite, something for the few, far from the reality of the people and too complicated to waste time thinking about, that's how we were created since forever. And for the people, festivities and mockery were left, and from festivities and mockery art was made. We learned not to call our art art, but that didn't mean we stopped making art. Giving whatever name is convenient for those who distanced art from us, we made music, poetry, told stories, painted portraits, we created worlds. This grew and over time the strength of the artistic power of this creative people cannot have any other name than art." "Here at 38 everyone knows each other and everyone is a partner, everyone here understands that no one lives alone and that each arm and mind in this community is important, people are inspired and admire each other. We fight sometimes but all familys fights sometimes right? like, Dona Valdeci When she makes polyvilho cookie, she tells her grandmother's stories and teaches old songs, while is having a churrasco with pagode at the bar on the corner, Pedro got a new tambourine and called his friends to play. Joacir is drunk again, reciting verses of poetry , the neighborhood kids play something different on the soccer field... it's just another normal day. Here at 38 everyone says good morning... And we're all together, with the help of our world, we fly together high beyond the stars in search of the future."

I made this installation inspired by the community of digital artists we created here on web3 and how chains has changed the way we produce and consume digital art. Sculpture/Installation made in virtual reality using voxel art and glitch art, pixel art textures. sculpture rendered in Paint3d. I chose this piece to be my first 1/1 installation because it has many stories from my past, stories that form my character and that I want to take into the future. This work represents the dream of growing up in a community, picking up the good baggage of the past to build the future.
