4444 unique photographic ocean NFTs with rarity traits minted on a custom ERC721 smart contract. Each NFT is made of three layers with different rarity weights:
Layer I
An altered, manipulated fraction of one of the project's key photographs, taken from the Strait of Magellan in December 2020 during the scientific expedition in Patagonia where I produced Behold The Ocean.
Layer II
One of over 200 handmade individual color gradients that resemble visual and chemical uncontrollable, unique occurrences in my analog color darkroom workflow.
Layer III
An abstract artifact pattern of the real, raw oceanographic data retrieved from the part of the ocean that was photographed in Layer I.
