I’ve come to accept that most of my art will likely go unseen, and I’m at peace with that. At the end of the day, I created it all for myself and for my own soul. That has always been enough. They asked Red Pill or Blue Pill, and I took both.
In a world where things are becoming increasingly digital, the same applies to art. Digital art has existed since the late last century, but blockchain has changed something fundamental: digital works can now be traded with ownership rights, in a simple and transparent way, without an intermediary. Dozens of online marketplaces such as exchange.art, mallow.art, superrare.com and objkt.com offer artists around the world the opportunity to offer their work directly to collectors. Social media connect these platforms, artists and collectors with one another, giving rise to online exhibitions and communities that continue to thrive in group chats, Discord, and in the real world as well. Digital art and collectibles also offer unique possibilities. Works are easy to share, can be collected worldwide (without shipping) and stored in large quantities (with no limitation of physical space). Possibilities for exhibition are equally broad: from screens and wall-sized projections to online galleries and Virtual Reality. Tolo Gallery was born from enthusiasm for new technology, in this case blockchain, and a deep love of art. What started as a small collection of a few works grew into a digital gallery with more than 500 works by 250 international artists and 8 carefully curated exhibitions. In 2025, Tolo Gallery was invited by @JTLissPhotoArt to curate a show in New York during NFT NYC. The gallery is now regularly approached for interviews and international exhibitions around the world. Tolo Gallery's private collection is, in concept and scale, unique in the world and demonstrates what digital art is capable of: giving rise to entirely new concepts and connecting people on a scale that is practically impossible with physical art. tolo.gallery
