Noctilucent Memento #181

Noctilucent Mementi is a generative chronicle that encapsulates 5 years of Martin Lukas Ostachowski's travels and work with clouds in crypto art. Each artwork is a location-specific memento, forming a visual timeline of the artist's development, milestones and travels between 2018 and 2023, spanning 4 continents and 11 countries. The term 'noctilucent', means 'luminous in the dark' and references high, invisible clouds. 'Mementi' represents the artist's curated visual memories. In MLO's words, "Noctilucent clouds are invisible memories, glowing when revisited." For MLO, clouds serve as a medium for speaking about the way that we transform and preserve intangible presences, both through personal memory and through digital wallets. In this, his first serial collection, MLO celebrates 5 years of artistic evolution since the creation of his first cloud artwork in September 2018.
