SuperRare, Foundation, MakersPlace, KnownOrigin, AsyncArt, ArtBlocks, OpenSea, NFT Showroom, and Viv3

A researcher and reifier of timeless mathematical wonders, an algorithmic conductor of intricate generative systems, and a collaborative curator of endless AI/GAN vistas; Daïm's works appear in a variety of notable international collections, including that of Metakovan, the Museum of Crypto Art, and the Government of Hungary.

The Artist's "Ancestral Memory" audiovisual slow art portrait was an NFT Awards 2020 finalist, and Cryptoblot #1044 from his early Art Blocks series is part of lot 4 of Sotheby's "Natively Digital" 2021 auction.

Taking an approach to art that is inseparably intellectual and spiritual at once, Daïm's works seek to convey his visions of the myriad improbable marvels hidden within mathematics and complex systems, and the undeniably anthropic conception of beauty within them that whispers of the divine.
