OLEA - Space V4
Solimán López is a contemporary artist specialised in art, science, sociology and technology. His artistic practice includes work with artificial intelligence, biotechnology and DNA, electronics, interactive and 3D.
In collaboration with the CSIC and specifically the Instituto de la Grasa in Seville, the artist has managed to produce a unique olive oil. The particularity of this olive oil is that its composition contains DNA molecules that contain the synthesis of the code of the OLEA cryptocurrency.
With this laboratory action, the artist united in the same liquid two of the historical economies of humanity. The project also aims to revalue the product of the earth, reflect on the origins of the value of things and is also a personal tribute to the artist's family past.
OLEA is a historical work that is represented and acquired through the limited edition of this very special oil, which can be found in different formats such as sculptural pieces, laboratory containers and of course NFTs that can be acquired independently or associated with the physical pieces. For the WOW Summit show, collectors can buy a special NFT edition based in the presence of the DNA molecule into virtual spaces, in this case a futurist desert.
Artwork is accompanied with the OLEA token.
