BURNING BILLIONS
Burning Billions – created by STEEP Daniel's artist alter ego "Jesus Guggenheim". A premier collection as a unique form of expression intended to document this period of time through a series of artworks. Each piece is handmade by STEEP Daniels using technological hardware including computer motherboards, chips, and wiring. Each artwork presents an influential figure in our modern capitalist society. The collection represents a "power that be" and the dissipating influence these figures pose to our world as time goes on. To form the final artwork, the completed physical pieces were destroyed by flame. The charred remnants and ashes will be submerged in epoxy resin and encased in a silver metal frame (inspired by Damien Hirst's shark sculture Leviathan (2006-2011). There are two parts to each artwork; collectors will be able to own the NFT performance art film, and or the 1 of 1 physical works themselves.
