BRIAN CATTELLE:

I am an artist with a focus on photography. I use the medium as a means of self-exploration and expression.
Although not limited to this medium, photography has always been my passion.
Throughout my artistic career, I have always looked for new and innovative ways to present my work. I have conceptualized and successfully executed several unique solo and group art shows.

At Art Plug Powerhouse I turned a shipping container into a movie theater for my 35mm work.
Other examples include Aqua Miami at Art Basel, my Abandoned Closet show, and The Viewmaster experience.

In recent years I also created my Art Van, a traveling art and NFT showroom. I was responsible for the first mobile sale of an NFT.
For the last two NFTNYC events, I have co-produced gallery shows, the latest of these being The Black Box Gallery Art Festival.

I entered the NFT space in 2021 with my Gummo Land Project, a 100-piece body of work, and one of the first photography series in the NFT art world.

I have been in the Web 3 space as an artist for over two years, it has provided me with an opportunity
to dive deeper into who I am as a creator, and to explore new facets of my own art practice.

I am dedicated to producing work without artifice, work that often flies in the face of what’s trending.
Innovation, in all areas, is vital to my process, and looking for new ways to present NFT art
within the community is an opportunity to move the entire ecosystem forward.
It is an opportunity that I welcome.

BRYONY SHEARMUR:

I am a multi-media artist, and I have been creating physical works of art for my entire life

My chosen mediums are photography, writing, and fiber art. I have developed a successful practice that envelopes all three.
My portrait photography has been included in multiple publications including Vogue, Q magazine, Rolling Stone, LA Weekly, and others.

I have been included in gallery shows in London, Los Angeles, and New York, both group and solo shows.
I have designed and published over a dozen books for myself and private clients. More recently I have been taken on as a creative consultant and curator for said private clients.
This has included curating and installing work, designing spaces around art pieces, finding creative solutions to creative problems.
In 2022 I co-produced a show in New York with Brian Catelle at The Lower Draw Gallery.
For NYC NFT 2023, we returned with The Black Box Gallery. A show that we conceived, funded, and produced from start to finish.
I entered the NFT space in 2021. My time here has been exponentially rewarding.
Translating my analog work for the world of NFTs has added new dimensions to my existing practice, and broadened my creative horizons in ways I could not have imagined. Being a valuable member of the community and turning my experience and skill set into opportunities for artists and collectors alike allows me to use everything I have learned in the traditional art world and apply it to Web 3.
