CLOSER TOGETHER
Meet the faces behind the global NFT art community.
WHAT IS IT?
A remote portrait project that aims to bring us all a little closer together.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Closer Together is a collaborative project that highlights the artists, creators, & collectors in the NFT community.
To create the images, I am capturing photographs using the CLOS remote portrait app.
This technology allows me to connect with anyone, anywhere in the world, to create art together.
WHY DO IT?
The people in the early days of the NFT art community are pioneers, and this portrait project is an important & valuable record.

Mia Forrest
@miaforrestphoto
Mia’s Bloom artworks hybridize time, technology, and nature; botanicals take on new meaning as surreal stretching shapes bloom upward to reveal a DNA-like helix structure as they morph into meta-species, inviting the audience to contemplate how species morph, change, survive, and thrive over time. Through the use of expanded time and digital techniques, her botanical arrangements are a tribute to the ephemera; re-imagining and immortalising them for the meta-age. -

Amit's photographic work shows facets of his human experience, his ease of artistic collaboration and the vehement iconoclastic urges throbbing beneath the polished veneer of a practiced socialised existence.
