Shub-Niggurath series is an NFT artwork based on artificial intelligence technology created by the artist in 2022. The artist adds the vocabulary on the Bitcoin chain to the vocabulary defined by the artist to generate visual images. Imagine human beings 5,000 years later.
Shub-Niggurath is an Outer God in Cthulhu Mythos, often referred to as “the black goat of the forest that gave birth to millions of descendants.” Its appearance and image vary in different works. Sometimes it is described as a huge rolling cloud, and sometimes it may gather to form terrifying body organs, slimy black tentacles, and mouths dripping with mucus. But her core characteristics are always associated with darkness, reproduction, and mysterious power.
The artist reconstructed its image by using AI technology combined with the description of NFT and blockchain, exploring the intrinsic connection between the core of its image and the consensus value of blockchain. It is like an allegory for the development of blockchain technology. It is a decentralized whole built by consensus, which is so huge that it cannot be described in words, and is formed through scientific and technological means. It is incredibly powerful but hides unpredictable uncontrollability.
莎布·尼古拉丝系列是艺术家在2022年创作的基于人工智能技术的NFT艺术作品，艺术家将比特币链上的词汇加入到艺术家定义的词汇中生成视觉图像。对5000年以后的人类进行想象。
莎布·尼古拉丝是克苏鲁神话中的一个外神，常被称呼为“孕育千万子孙的森之黑山羊：。其外貌和形象在不同的作品中有所变化，有时被描述为一团不断翻滚的巨大云雾，有时可能会聚合形成骇人的身体器官，黏滑的黑色触手，以及滴着粘液的嘴。但她的核心特征始终是与黑暗、繁殖和神秘力量相关联。
艺术家通过运用AI技术结合对NFT及区块链的描述将其形象进行重构，探讨其形象内核与区块链共识价值的内在联系，如同是对区块链技术发展的寓言，通过科技手段形成的、庞大至不可用语言描述的由共识所搭建的去中心化的整体，力量惊人却暗藏着无法预测的不可控性。
