Invited as an artist in residence, Robyn Ward will create a painting during the House of Muse pop-up in New York City, taking place September 10 – 27, 2022. Working on a 3 x 6 meter canvas inside of the five-floor townhouse at 214 Lafayette in SoHo, Ward will be painting daily after-hours to create an ever-evolving painting over the course of two weeks.
While the physical artwork will be donated to a Contemporary Art Museum, a digital counterpart will be available for purchase in the form of 1,000 individual digital NFTs (non- fungible tokens) enabling holders of each NFT to own a piece of the whole digital artwork. The NFTs may be purchased at any time during the course of Ward’s two-week residency.
On September 27 the painting will be completed and the final artwork will be unveiled; only then will the image associated with the NFTs become visible to holders. Also within the building is an exhibition of paintings from the past 10 years, documenting multiple series from Ward’s career.
The exhibition includes works from I, II, III, IV, V but also from F.A.B. House of Muse has partnered with Tessera (previously Fractional. art) – a platform which enables users to participate in collective ownership of NFTs. With collective ownership increasing access to NFTs, Tessera has enabled 70,000 people globally to collectively own over 6,500 of the world’s most sought after NFTs.
