Description
Tiger Year, Tiger Explosions wishes you.
In 2022, on the occasion of the year of the tiger, Cai Guo-Qiang and his daughter Cai Wen-You teamed up to create a small gift for an important "tiger" in their life: Cai's wife and Wen-You's mother Wu Hong Hong. Together, the father daughter team created the interactive Tiger Year, Tiger Explosions NFT, which was announced on Hong Hong's birthday April 26th, in collaboration with 721Land.
After collectors enter their birthdays, different birth dates will trigger different dynamic visual effects of the "golden tiger", including nine blessings for collectors whose birth years fall on tiger years and one blessing for all other collectors. For collectors of this NFT who were born in a year of tiger, owning this work symbolizes good fortune and the receipt of blessings. Once this year of the tiger is over, the golden liquid will automatically revert back to the image of the golden tiger, symbolizing "the passing of bad luck".
The collectors' dates of births will be recorded directly on the blockchain of the artwork and circulated in perpetuity, connecting collectors with the artists and the artwork as well as the profound natural cycles of life, breathing into technologies such as NFTs and blockchains a novel inheritance encompassing humanism and history.
