I am thrilled to announce the first Creator-Creative collaboration on Focus and possibly one of the first in DESO's history.

At the end of March, I will be returning to my roots as a curator, pausing the release of my Decentralized Dimensions series and collaborating with renowned digital artist @SidXO to release a series of digital artworks on @NFTz.

@SidXO is the Resident Artist at WHALE Members and has had a storied career both in the digital art market, as well as a mentor, advisor and friend to many within the crypto art community.

SidXO is an artist specializing in creating vibrant and imaginative 3D illustrations, acrylic paintings, audio works and animations. His works are inspired by the world through neurodiverse eyes, reflecting the vibrant colours and overwhelm of sensory overload, and experimentation with the infinite possibilities of the digital world.

Each piece is crafted with meticulous attention to detail and is designed to transport the viewer to a beautiful and uplifting new space. From the phygital ExyOzy works to the surreal cityscapes of BLOCKSTAR x ROCKSTAR Sid is quickly becoming known for his instantly recognizable style and vibrant colour palette.

His work has been featured in numerous publications and exhibitions. With a passion for creating stunning and unique art, SidXO is a rising star in the world of NFTs. Sid's main aim is to bring joy and empathy to the ND world without ever entering the room, letting the work tell it's own story.

My "career" in NFTs started with collecting some of digital art's most successful creatives like XCOPY, Hackatao, Pak, Brendan Dawes and many others so it makes sense to support Focus and DESO with my proven strengths.

@SidXO will be creating three 1/1 works inspired by this account, decentralized social media (DESO) and decentralized finance (DeFi) that will be put on auction at the end March.

Similar to my Decentralized Dimensions series, each of these 1/1 artworks will also receive lifetime benefits from the $DESO staking rewards being issued by this account.

Collaborations with good people have always excited me and I personally can't wait to see what beauty @SidXO brings to all of you.

A collaboration between Creator and Creative, a collaboration between NFTs and Finance and finally a worthy collaboration between Art and Technology.
