WTF is The Grounds Machine?
The Grounds Machine is a program designed to support 10 artists who will become the core of a living creative engine within Grounds.
These artists will create new Grounds artworks following a shared visual and conceptual framework, driving the rhythm of creation, auctions, and community growth.
- 1:1 square
- Organic Art - No AI
- PFP - expressive and identifiable
