The digital art platform NEORT is proud to announce the official inauguration in May at the NEORT++ gallery of the solo exhibition “Tiny Sketches” by Shunsuke Takawo and now distributes certificates of participation to commemorate the event. The exhibition will offer "POAP" to viewers visiting the gallery. Takawo has started a daily activity to write a tiny code called "sketch" every day since January 1, 2015. In March 2019, he started publishing the sketches through Twitter and OpenProcessing, and called the activity "daily coding". Takawo's daily coding started as a personal activity but his purpose and meaning changed dramatically through the communication with people via published codes and graphics. In the process of the daily exchange of comments on sketches and code references and modifications that transcended language barriers, Takawo gradually began to see the nature of his code as a commons (common property) in which the ideas and techniques of others were mixed in with his own code. At the same time, Takawo began to rediscover the cultural practices that are rooted in our daily life and the region, and he started focusing on the possibility of expression through personal/poetic codes that link this side of the display to the other side of the code. The NFT art project "Generativemasks," which attracted worldwide attention when it was presented in August 2021, was one fruition in the practice and transformation of daily coding. His daily coding, which explores an alternative and open form of expression through code that deviates from the mainstream of general art, which is evaluated based on advanced algorithms and computation, and software development that expects functionality and purposefulness, is currently being carried out as a daily activity by Takawo and other artists who share his activities on SNS. This exhibition, "Tiny Sketches," will present approximately 200 sketches carefully selected from Takawo's daily coding series of over 1,500 sketches as printed works. During the exhibition, NFT artworks derived from daily coding will also be presented. We hope you will enjoy this modest yet poetic and free-spirited exhibition of Takawo's code expressions and activities.

The digital art platform NEORT is proud to announce the official inauguration in April at the NEORT++ gallery of the first exhibition "Moment" and now distributes certificates of participation to commemorate the event. The exhibition will offer "POAP" to viewers visiting the gallery. This exhibition is held in the hope "...that this gallery and the cherry blossom will remain for many years and decades into the future..." this Cherry blossom tree can be browsed by everyone online, but “NFT cherry blossom” blooms only during the springtime, which is also the period of the exhibition. Every year in April, this cherry blossom comes into bloom. This is an experiment to make the digital artworks reflect the ephemeral nature of cherry blossom and the significance of the limited time of the exhibition in a physical space. how can the artistic experience through NFT extend the "now, this moment"? This POAP will certify the shared moments in real space in an organically woven spread of time and space, made possible by the program built in that way. 2022.04.02(SAT) — 05.01(SUN) opening reception : 4.1(FRI) 18:00–21:00 NEORT++ 3F maruka, 2–2–14 Nihonbashi Bakurocho, Chuo-ku, Tokyo Open : Wed — Sun 12:00–19:00 Closed : Mon, Tue, National holiday NFT works for sale here: https://moment.neort.io The artist that created artwork: Ayumu Nagamatsu After studying art history in undergraduate school, experienced as a PM of system development in an internet service company.
