Vegetal Wall. Stichting la Jetee I am in recent times projecting images to redraw them. Photographs or frames of videos. A domestic magic lantern, a journey through my YouTube favourites and the fake multi-coloured pencil game is all that hides the suggestion. I present mural drawings on paper that are at the same time artist books displayed. Smooth paper, without texture, where the light refracts smoothly until the next fold. Basic material as a support, on which I have drawn lines made with coloured pencils, pastels and markers. Wall drawings. A large format to induce immersion to the viewer within the surface of the paper. The line is a line of changing colours that travels between areas of light and shadow. Fata morgana. An iridescence of the line as if it were an atmospheric effect or a meteorological phenomenon.

But what exactly is oliasstudio.eth? A portfolio, a shop, a manifesto, an archive, an advertising strategy, an artist's self-promotion?
It is a web service that is operational on the IPFS network. These service has communication, exhibition and commercial purposes, and also tries to be an approximation to a model of autonomy and self-management of the artist and management and administration of his/her own work (Selling wine without bottles, by John Perry Barlow). Assuming that art is a gregarious and institutional human activity, we do not wish to exclude ourselves, but we do wish to protect certain aspects without which it is not possible to develop a free activity such as artistic activity requires. And by counteracting the weight and influence that power groups and cultural agents have and with which they tyrannise.

Is it possible to buy artwork on this website? Are all the pieces authenticated? As nfts? What is the relationship between NFTs and the new digital art culture with the pieces of an artist who uses traditional media in his production?
Yes, you can buy original paintings, drawings and prints authenticated by the author. The sale of image rights and marketing rights through NFTs of the digital images of the original pieces or prints can be negotiated and acquired. In that sense the studio intends to use tokenisation to wrap physical art for interoperability on the web3 and for commercial use.
Among the pieces in the collection are pieces of digital art that we have selected from our long history. Some works commissioned for clubs in the 90's, or fragments of the activity as a videoDj in the 2000's now minted in this effervescent time of the current industrial revolution. -

Is oliasstudio a personal project? How many people work in the design department or how many accounts are in the TAG Lab DAO?
Just one person working on the studio. We have a group of talented artists and technicians orbiting with whom we eventually work on web or video or graphic design projects. Collaborators on commissioned or collaborative projects.
In Soonaverse currently has 60 members. There are five founding member accounts that carry the most weight in the DAO organisation in the Aragon client. More info on TAG Lab -
Why this approach? What is the point of working in a network like IPFS?
HTTP vs IPFS: Is Peer-to-Peer Sharing the Future of the Web? —Really we don't know. But we presume it makes perfect sense. The following sections delve into some problems of HTTP and the benefits of IPFS.
