ARTIST IN LIGHT
Using manual camera techniques drawing upon traditional still & cinematic methods. Gisel has 20 years experience with professional & personal explorations of the photographic medium; expanding light & exploring paths through the lens of a post-digitized era. She has exhibited internationally and recently auctioned a collaborative piece with Sasha Stiles at Sotheby 2024 for a benefit for next year's Lumen Prize. Supporting decentralized initiatives and artists rights, Gisel raises awareness towards means for the financial autonomy of creatives. Since her first mint to blockchain in 2019, she's explored the technical aspects of various chains and witnessed multiple creative tech initiatives through waves of innovation between socials, collectives and DAO's. Gisel is co-founder of HelloWOCA (Women of Crypto Art) & art advisor with The Verse Verse bringing poetry to blockchain.
Her first manually generative project "TRANSMISSIONS OF LIGHT" began in 2019; generative photographic captures of light and time; new colors and a bright texture-play iconic to the city that never sleeps. "PHYSICALLY GENERATIVE" a Photographic collection of 1/1/36; released on a Manifold contract with Ethereum Blockchain, available through SuperRare.com Gisel is currently finalizing #MOONLANGUAGE “Verses of a Visual Universe” with musician PLUTONIC MIND. A non-literal alphabet of 968 audio & visual verses of dance with the Moon. Photographs captured in-camera and audio interpreted through the origin of one sound. Each verse holds unique frequency, rotation, cloud, digital impression, noise or unexplained atmospheric interference within the composition or tone. Metaverse preview & launch as inscriptions upcoming in FEB 2025.
Gisel is currently open to special projects, books & commissioned works. Sign up for email updates HERE.

Fire sparked onto a white handbag incited a passion for physical reactions towards commercial based visuals for brands, editorials & independent labels. Gisel's persistent experimentation led her to learn early about blockchain in 2018 and continued to develop her personal works alongside exhibiting internationally, archiving & transmitting globally through blockchain mediums & limited edition Gicleé prints.
WHAT IS WEB3?
Blockchain is a technology that's a key part of Web3;
the next generation of the internet.
-
Blockchain: A digital ledger that's decentralized and distributed across many devices, making it secure and transparent. Each block in the chain contains data that's linked to the next block. Blockchain is used to record transactions, and is the foundation for cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, NFTs, and metaverse worlds.
-
Web3: The next iteration of the internet, which is built on blockchain technology and is designed to be more decentralized and user-controlled. Web3 aims to give users more control over their data and online activities, and to eliminate the central authority of platforms. Web3 applications can include social media platforms, online marketplaces, and decentralized finance (DeFi).

Please note: Web3 & blockchain technologies are quickly developing & shifting so individual must do their own research to effectively understand & interact safely. These sited below are to be viewed as a starting point I find informative to gather blockchain knowledge of NFTs with an art focus.
