Nonfungible Bodies: modified, adorned, digitized features a group of artists and designers exploring ideas of the body and its paths of decoration, expression, and identity, mixing digital ownership with offline artworks. The show will present works that reach outside of traditional and familiar art forms and forms of delivery, utilizing Postmasters custom blockchain technology as a physical response to the rise in artworks as non-fungible tokens. Non-Fungible Bodies focuses on the new generation of emerging artists who are working across physical and digital processes, often informing each other and in relation to their communities. Artworks are responsive to digital trends, and in this exhibition they engage the online society through paths of self expression including virtual fashion, experimental accessories, hyper digitized music, and body modifications. Artworks are available for purchase with cryptocurrency, with available pieces ranging from unique digital files and garments, physical artworks with digital and bodily components, and exclusive editioned music.
The curator, Danielle Paterson, is a Toronto born and New York based artist, curator, and fashion archivist. Her exhibitions addresses ideas of the offline, art therapy, and the digital matrix. Danielle also has interests in historical fashion, performance, textiles, and the sociology of fashion.
