Ascent - Derivative work - Private │ Not Secret collection

[18+ • Suggestive Content] Derivative work from the artwork Ascent, a first piece of Revolving Souls series from Private, Not Secret collection. "Ascent" initiates one of the many revolving motions that you go through and that give meaning to the intimacy between two souls. Revolving Souls series moves in another dimension, into a profane sacredness dance, and sacred profanity dance, and cosmic dance. Swaying in the only reality of souls, which is their eternity, it reminds us that time is only a variable created by the vanity of the human being. Private, Not Secret collection seeks to make visible what has often been silenced, diminished, infantilized, and left unseen. Rather than reproducing the original painting, this edition expands it through datamoshing processes and sound effects, allowing the image to exist as a living work. It combines digital painting with glitch aesthetics to create an experience that cannot exist in its digital counterpart. For the Private, Not Secret collection, Web3 is more than a distribution technology; it provides a space where the work can exist without centralized gatekeepers. The decentralization, permanence, accessibility, and censorship resistance offered by Arweave make it possible for these interactive works to remain available as complete digital objects. The collection is guided by a humanistic perspective that recognizes both a shared essence and the richness of human diversity. In this context, the permanence of the permaweb becomes conceptually aligned with the collection itself: each NFT is intended as a lasting statement in favor of diversity and visibility. Every component of this artwork—including video, audio, code, and other digital assets—is permanently archived on Arweave. Its authenticity and integrity can be independently verified through the unique Arweave Transaction ID (TXID), included among the hidden attributes of this NFT. No Redeem Policy: This is a foundational collection. For that reason, these NFTs will never support redeem functionality or participate in any future redemption program. The artwork and all of its associated assets are intended to remain complete and unchanged from the time of mint. Credits & Attribution.
