Ngl I thought I was just checking another NFT collection... then I went down the rabbit hole a bit. Turns out @DKashtalyan has been creating for over 20 years before touching onchain. Not crypto-native first. Real walls. Real exhibitions. Real art journey. His work made it into The New York Times, Harper’s Magazine, MIT Technology Review, giant murals across cities, exhibitions from Taipei to Warsaw. And now all that experience becomes: THE BEAKS 1111 pieces. First onchain collection. What I like is that it doesn't feel built around "wen mint" energy. The art feels weird in a good way, surreal creatures, symbolic details, dotwork textures... almost like every piece is trying to tell you something without explaining itself. Lowkey made me stop scrolling for a minute. A lot of collections start from web3 and try becoming art later. This one feels like art entering web3 after spending decades finding its own voice. Maybe that's why it hits different. Curious if ppl here see it too or if I'm just overthinking my bags already lol. @thebeaksart @DKashtalyan @ZaxWeb3 🖤
