When I got to Marfa, I didn’t know what would inspire me most to create a new piece. I came with an open mind. But what struck me the most wasn’t something I could see — it was something I felt. Time moved differently here. By the second day, everything began to slow down. That shift made me realize something simple: This collection only exists because I was given time. Time to be here. Time to explore. Time to create. And time is the most beautiful gift one person can give to another. @artblocks , @opensea — and above all, my family — gave me that gift. That’s why this work is called “Gift of Time” — a tribute to that generosity. Just as I felt time move differently here, the piece itself is shaped by time. It evolves constantly — changing moment by moment, never repeating, always shifting. It’s a visual expression of how we live through time: creating memories, building connections, collecting experiences. It’s not static, because neither is time. And neither are we.
