​​The 'world's first NFT residency'

Kamiar Maleki, a collector and Volta art fair director, set up an art NFT residency in French Rivera.

The UK digital artist Vector Meldrew (aka Alex Johnson), French-Iranian artist Sassan Behnam-Bakhtiar and the UK rapper Tinie Tempah were working together for 7 days there to produce work titled Present the Future, a video of the Bahtiar's signature flowers disintegrates into rainbow gumballs, which are then recomposed into diamond-like prisms by Meldrew, set to a song composed by Tempah.

Digital work will be minted into a unique 90-second NFT. Images of the other 5 paintings by Bakhtiar will be minted into five 30-second-long NFTs (250-500 editions) and sold on 21 July in a drop on Nifty Gateway.

More on the collaboration is in the Art Newspaper. Pictures by the artists.
