Open Eyes (Flower)

Jake Fried x Avant Arte x Cozomo de’ Medici.

Animations by Jake Fried find physical form in an edition of monochromatic lenticulars.

Traversing digital and physical art, Open Eyes (Flower) transforms the illusory subjects and movements of Fried’s NFTs into an ever-shifting lenticular. The artist’s animations require painstaking repetition – drawn one layer at a time, by hand, before being scanned and combined into digital artworks. Eight individual frames have been used as the basis for the intricate three-part lenticular.

Hand-drawn animation with ink and white-out. 1 second loop.
Each print is paired with an NFT of the same artwork.
