VOGUE Meta-Ocean
Inspired by Vogue's Meta-Ocean, Vogue and TRLab offer a curated collection of NFT artworks showcasing six pioneering digital artists from around the world: Jessica Ticchio, Anushka Tendolkar, Khyati Trehan, Baoyang Chen, Cattin Tsai, and Momo Chen. Each artist found inspiration for their contributed works in Meta-Ocean's intersecting themes of fine art, fashion, and web3 technology. This partnership marks the first global Vogue-curated NFT collection.
A Moment
"A moment" is a classic example of Anushka's personal work where she finds inspiration from situations or moods she is going through. At an overwhelming point, taking moments to herself becomes a necessity to keep her calm and composed and figure out what to do next. A moment to the artist can sometimes look soothing, sometimes vibrant, sometimes so neutral that she cannot gauge her own feelings. But finding solace in nature, the warmth of plants and the sheer beauty of butterflies is a visual that culminates itself in mental moodboard of the perfect moment, a minute to herself.
Ecotherapy
An ongoing series, "Ecotherapy" is a set of 3D digital illustrations and an investigation into the therapeutic qualities of entropy in nature. We feel interconnected with the earth and have an undeniable, almost mystical bond with organic and imperfect entities that exist in our ecosystems. No matter how much dynamism & movement the artist added to the scene, how many elements she stacked one on top of the other, and how many simulated winds and forces she subjected the elements to, even a synthetic and chaotic representation of nature manages to induce a sense of calm. Extending the subject of the project to the process, the pieces were modelled slowly, at ease, over days and without the pressure to be productive or the rush to create.
Future Landscape
"Future Landscape" captures the five elements as defined by Chinese philosophers, bridging ancient Chinese culture and the future, reality and nothingness, the tactile and the virtual, life and death within nature, and the infinite possibilities of the digital state.
