The Cabinet of Curiosities, a storage room utilized by European nobles during the 16th century to display their rare and valuable collections from around the world, is now regarded as a crucial predecessor to the modern-day museum and gallery. It served not only as a private repository for personal treasures but also as a space for exchanging interests and tastes with the broader community. Today, the DADAZ community is united by a shared interest in the unique experiences and insights offered by DADAZ project. As an artist, DADAZ seeks to emulate the Cabinet of Curiosities by observing everyday objects with a curious eye and conveying their stories in his paintings.

DADAZ

DADAZ strives to remain open to new fields and projects, ultimately leaving a lasting impact as an artist who created culture alongside DADAZ fam. Together, they embarked on a shared journey of discovering new values.

The DADAZ project was launched by presenting NFT artworks as gifts to acquaintances, with distribution of the 888 pieces ongoing to this day. As the number of recipients (DADAZ Fam) increased, multi-layered communities formed, expanding rapidly through the creation of secondary works and offline meetups.

DADAZ's work is characterized by the "eyes, nose, and mouth" motif. Three white lines are casually drawn downwards, with black rice-shaped dots on both sides representing pupils, stimulating imaginative expressions. This motif serves as a signature element in every picture. Another sculptural element is the "spell," a free curve arranged in one to five lines on the background of every screen. It's not a special sentence, but DADAZ’s spell is like an another language in a state of “trance." It contains DADAZ's warm heart, which thinks of the recipient of the picture (DADAZ Fam). Ultimately, the spell becomes a "bridge" linking individuals.
