With its eye-catching appearance, №4118 broke into human vision, but we have not further explored its secrets. №4118 has floated and moved with the asteroid belt for countless years. It may be the broken relic of a certain star, or it may be the remnant of the Solar system at the beginning of its birth… We have no way of knowing.

Artwork Introduction: Everything has its moving parts, but not everyone can discover it. Book of Rites said: “ Although there is delicious food, if you do not eat, you will not know its delicacy; although there is good knowledge, if you do not learn, you will not know its goodness. “ Only by practicing by oneself, it is possible to discover the beauty of things. The Confucian philosophy nowadays seems to have a lot to learn from and inherit. We have brushed away the fragments, gone through the phenomenon, and constantly analyzed and reorganized, only then can we see the fundamental relationship and understand the true beauty of things.
019 ARANYA CACERARMB 20,000–40,000

Whether in the field of Visual Effects or Abstract Art, he has extremely mature production experience and high production standards. Therefore, he has received many recognitions from partners and agencies.
Artwork Introduction: If we observe carefully, we can distinguish the complex lines in this artwork. Numerous lines are interwoven and arranged to form a transition from straight to curved; the periodic movement of the lines completes the evolution from flat to three-dimensional. The infinite cycle seems to be the mission of these lines, and they are also constraints. But it is undeniable that their existence is precisely the source of the overall external changes; Perhaps monotonous, repetitive, and boring work is the cornerstone of order and stability.
020 CUBESCAPE RMB 20,000–40,000
Artist: Ufhouck
Formerly known as Ufuk AYDIN, a graphic and animation designer from Istanbul with 15 years of design experience.

At present, Ufuk AYDIN has created hundreds of outstanding NFT works, which have been recognized by many collectors.
Artwork Introduction: The reason why humans can observe various objects with the naked eye is just because of the existence of visible light. Ufuk AYDIN was inspired by the visible light spectrum and constructed this dynamic and dazzling cube world. The perspective of periodic rotation, the continuous flow of colors, and the technique of perspective are vividly displayed. All things originate from light. In people’s perception, light often means brightness, hope and the future. The tribute to the light and the gratitude to the splendid world may be the author’s personal will conveyed by this work.
021 SPLIT RMB 20,000–40,000
Artist: Ufhouck
Artwork Introduction: When it comes to division, people may objectively think of dualism. Material and spirit are independent of each other, light and darkness, good and evil are strictly opposed… The dynamic changes in this artwork that are constantly torn and twisted reflect our repeated self-examination. The experience of philosophy tells us that if people look directly into their hearts, they may be able to find their own divided souls. The seemingly dualistic features just constitute human nature. Ufuk AYDIN said frankly that perhaps people should choose in the dark. This is a great test for everyone.
022 1605 GLITCH VERSION RMB 20,000–40,000
Artist: Something Strange
An ardent supporter of crypto art, a mysterious and talented artist. His works have a high transaction rate on all major encrypted art trading platforms.

The Gunpowder Plot of 1605 ended in failure, and the fanatical Catholics failed to overthrow the government. In the movie, V resisted oppression and totalitarianism with an unyielding attitude, pursued free will with the harshest means, and finally succeeded. What the artist puts in this work is people’s yearning for freedom, the determination to smooth out all totalitarianism and tyranny in the process of human progress.

Artwork Introduction: How difficult is it to make a planet? What if you sow a planetary seed and eventually reap many planets? Even if this is just a game, it must be the most romantic one. The artist’s description of himself is “he’s a person. More? No More.” It seems that each one of our life patterns can be described by a universal definition, is this our choice or destiny? Sowing the beautiful fantasy of planets is just like the artist’s expectation of exploring other choices in life.
024 GAME OF THE GALAXY — — TO BUILD A MACHINE RMB 8,000–16,000
Artist: Erzi Fasheng Technology
Artwork Introduction:
The deep black is the background of the universe. Two willow trees, one female and the other male, are arranged around each other, pollinating naturally, and thrive.The artist uses the willow tree as a medium to imagine how human descendants multiply. The non-contact method of reproduction is efficient and concise. It does not need to support each other, rely on each other, let alone close contact. There seems to be no intersection between the two. Maybe we can really get this new technology in the future, but in a world where human nature is diminished, are we reproducing people or next-generation machine?
