The "5-Grid Compression" project is part of the fxhash and RefractionDAO live minting experience at the Tezos South Beach Miami exhibition on December 6th, 2023.

"5-Grid Compression" is an artistic exploration of self-doubt and self-criticism, reflecting on discarded initial concepts, imperfect prototypes, and unfulfilled aspirations in the realm of art.
It features five recursive grids, intentionally "compressed" to represent discarded projects as if thrown into a wastebasket. Embracing a raw and unpolished aesthetic, these grids symbolize the often overlooked aspects of the creative process, underscoring the belief that creativity requires time, deep introspection, and persistent exploration.
This work emphasizes that every incomplete piece or unrealized idea is valuable, offers insight, and is an essential step in the evolution of digital artistry.
