Feral File will contact collectors within two weeks of the auction closing for fulfillment. Shipping and printing costs are included in the price of the work. Note that all orders will take <a href=\"https:\/\/feralfile.us14.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=6ba47d35944fc04102b0e9ae6&amp;id=9843c580c6&amp;e=a15d515591\">6-8 weeks<\/a> to deliver.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sub-title\">Curator Chris Coleman on the exhibition:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe works in Doppelganger explore identities that cross and fuse boundaries. Each of the artists are exploring how they define the self, especially in connection with technological change. Each of the works will exist in digital and physical forms, the same and yet also very different because of the materiality or lack thereof. Perhaps each format will bring collectors a different understanding of the ideas, empowered by touch instead of channeling through a cursor. Hopefully balance and reconciliation can be found between the physical and digital, letting us celebrate both and also consider what control means in the rapids of our swift life streams.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"sub-title\">Preview of the Artworks:<\/p>\n<div class=\"space-els\">\n<div class=\"image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mcusercontent.com\/6ba47d35944fc04102b0e9ae6\/images\/38ceed16-4426-e2b6-883e-ba4b7baf796d.png\" alt=\"\u201c\u201cRelic Viewports\u201d by LaTurbo Avedon.

Image courtesy of the artist and Feral File.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"bold\">Relic Viewports<\/span><\/p>\n<p>As avatar artist LaTurbo Avedon continues to expand the simulated world of the Materia System, here it is visualized through a series of Viewports. These objects operate as windows and mirrors of immaterial space, rendering perspectives of the Materia System through their specific forms. Materia is a mythos emerging from the long term interactions and connections with LaTurbo in their worlds. For this exhibition, Avedon has created the work \u201cRelic Viewports,\u201d which is tethered to a limited series of physical objects, offered as tangible records of the System\u2019s early development.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"space-els\">\n<p><span class=\"bold\">Metamultimouse (Pictured Above)<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Matthew Plummer-Fern\u00e1ndez\u2019s \u201cMetamultimouse\u201d is a digital and physical figurine that is both one and many at the same time, embodying the paradox of distributed ownership for hybrid digital-physical artworks. In digital form, the work exists as an animation made with CGI and AI software, morphing between various computer-generated patinas. In physical form, each copy manifests as one of its possible versions. \u201cMetamultimouse\u201d continues the artist\u2019s inquiry into changing attitudes towards copyright, especially in relation to 3D printing, often using derivatives of Mickey Mouse to exacerbate copyright conundrums. In this latest installment, a smoothed-out version of Mickey rendered free from copyright now has to grapple with NFT culture, where popular characters are expected to be both unique and discernibly similar, often using code to create variants and randomize their distribution.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"space-els\">\n<div class=\"image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mcusercontent.com\/6ba47d35944fc04102b0e9ae6\/images\/aad81a95-b8a8-6366-492f-c9d5a0c977a2.jpeg\" alt=\"FFF (Famous Fractional Face) by Jeremy Bailey.

Famous New Media Artist Jeremy Bailey is a living digital avatar, but unlike PFPs, his identity is fixed and unique. How might we all benefit from this emerging asset class that relies on variation without diluting Bailey\u2019s famously consistent identity? The solution is simple: by dividing himself into 100 unique slices or \u2018coins,\u2019 many more collectors can own a unique share of his total self. Each coin will be available as a real physical coin referencing a cross section of Famous New Media Artist Jeremy Bailey\u2019s head. Every collector will also get access to a digital augmented reality (AR) model of his complete head for their reference and enjoyment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"space-els img-alt\">\n<p><span class=\"bold\">About Feral File<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Feral File is where artists, collectors, and curators convene to co-create a new paradigm for digital art.
