Mitchell F. Chan on the “Threshold Between Nothingness and Somethingness” That Anticipated His Work With NFTS

“We had this system of discourse and this way of presenting ideas, and all of it seemed to be spectacular but none of it seemed to have any substance at its core.”
– Artist Mitchell F. Chan, on Something Something National Conversation (in 2 characters or less) (2016). Translating the post-Trump post-truth newsfeed into puffs of water vapour, he describes the installation as articulating the “threshold between nothingness and somethingness” later explored in his proto-NFT project Digital Zones of Immaterial Pictorial Sensibility (2017).
