Literature
The Currency challenges the concept of value through money and art. Each of the unique 10,000 hand painted works were launched as NFTs on the blockchain. Each artwork is uniquely titled and numbered.
The artist announced a bold plan allowing buyers of his project The Currency to decide between owning the physical artwork or the digital NFT connected to it. The purchaser exercised options on how to use their art/currency. A majority 5149 opted to trade their NFT for the physical Hirst.
Our vendor opted for the physical - 9765. Clear Hair. This means the corresponding NFT no longer exists. The work comes with a travel box and frame.
