Artwork Description

David and Goliath is a cheeky exploration of the intersection between art and enterprise.

Locking artwork behind exclusive paywalls is nothing new – we’ve been doing it successfully in some form for centuries. And while the rise of the digital age lead to a dramatic acceleration in our ability to communicate arts and culture, it wasn’t long before we also found elaborate ways to monetise its consumption.

Art isn’t created in a vacuum, so how do NFTs, digital licensing rights, and emerging revenue streams change the way we produce and digest our art? Is this good for the artist?

It certainly isn’t black and white…
