PHOTONS

Crego’s practice has significantly impacted the blockchain sphere, notable not just for collectible digital works but also for engaging in critical discussions about the future of intellectual property and the value of digital creations within decentralized contexts.

Primarily crafting hypnotic loops, Crego visualizes his mental images as mesmerizing visual mantras, probing the intersection between the static nature of pictures and the continuous, yet ultimately finite frames of films.

He advocates for “No-ism,” rejecting categorization into restrictive doctrines, believing that such labels risk creating dogma or cult-like thinking.            He humorously coined “Giftillism,” a playful variation of Pointillism, to characterize some of his works.   This conceptual foundation underscores his Amniotic Culture series, particularly the notion of “Community,” urging audiences to consider how authentic communal bonds are formed through collective inertia rather than individual interests.

In his debut exhibition in the region at Foundry Downtown, we present a selection of works titled Photons, exploring how human bodies traverse voids across time. “Photons,” the minimal unit of light, metaphorically illustrates how human actions and connections radiate outward from within. This human connectivity is embodied explicitly in the artwork “The Link,” symbolizing the essential human role bridging abstract dimensions.

Crego has collaborated extensively with DJs, artists, and creative agencies, actively transitioning GIF artworks beyond the web into physical and augmented spaces. His pieces appear via projectors, digital screens, cinemas, and AR apps, interrogating newly emerging digital public spaces and raising profound questions about museums, art, and reality itself.
