SHIFT / Géraldine Honauer (CH)
SHIFT is a process-oriented artwork that examines the economics of labor, bridging the gap between the real world and the increasingly commodified virtual world. The web3-enabled SHIFT platform offers the rental of digital work clothes as wearables in virtual worlds. Using blockchain technology and smart contracts, SHIFT autonomously manages the rental process and issues a ‘proof of work’ certificate in the form of NFTs, which includes information such as the blockchain address, timestamp, location, and fee amount paid in the project’s cryptocurrency.
