Conceptual Artist SHL0MS Detonates a Lamborghini Huracan
LAS VEGAS, Feb. 18, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Pseudonymous conceptual artist SHL0MS has announced that they have blown up a Lamborghini Huracan in an undisclosed desert location for a groundbreaking NFT art project. 999 fragments of the car have been meticulously categorized, documented, and filmed in stunning rotating videos — highlighting the striking stochastically-generated abstract forms produced by the wreckage. Through the act of defiling the stereotypical objet de désir of the crypto space and positioning the charred wreckage as fine art, the artist delivers a smoldering critique of zero-sum, extractive practices in the crypto industry while postulating a way forward that centers around long-termism and a focus on using technology for broader societal value rather than self-enrichment.
