OA24 CoCreated - Submission

About OA24 CoCreated

We are creating an Open Art community artwork - OA24 CoCreated. All artists who care about open art in Folkestone are invited to put an image in a collective version of the OA24 logo. And raise funds for the festival. The way it works is that the art will be a collection of 50+ pieces all made from a random selection of 4 submitted artworks. The key thing is that the audience become curators; they decide what combinations go in the final collection when they decide to buy a piece. All contributing artists get a free digital edition, and when they collect their edition their combination will be entered into the collection. 50% of all digital sales (mints) will go to the OA24 festival, the rest will go to the artist who conceived and created the work Chris Gage, aka ChrisCoCreated, a Folkestone based digital community artist(more about Chris here). The project is open to all artists with a connection to Folkestone.

Important Concepts

1.Minting: Minting is the process of putting the created artwork 'onchain' (onto a blockchain). This happens when someone buys a digtal edition of the work. The process creates a permanent record of the work that will last as long as the blockchain lasts (likely hundreds of years). When someone 'mints' a piece of work they are adding it to the permant collection for this project.

2. CC0: Each collective artwork we make is placed into the public domain with a Creative Commons 0 licence, which means No Rights Reserved. Learn more about CC0 at Creative Commons. This means that anyone can do what they want with it, including you. We encourage people to take the image and put it on bags and t-shirts and prints in whatever way they want. ChrisCoCreated is going to be doing this with Gallery Boards of the images that are minted. Note: This only applies to the new creations of the Logo that have been minted, your orignal artwork is still entirely protected by its existing licence.

This means that when you mint an artwork you are both making a permanent record of the artwork in the collection, giving a gift to our shared creative commons, and both helping support a local artist and funding the festival. Plus we get to make something unique and beutiful as we do it.

Submission

Please submit one image for inclusion[roughly 1:1 ~square ratio, 4MB max]. Guidance: Submit whatever reflects your art, just check it looks good in the template below (you'll be able to preview once you upload). Diversity is great, so go with your gut, part of what's going to be fun about this is the serendipity of unexpected elements.
