#51 OONA, Challenging the Conventional

NonFunGerbils - Artist 2 Artist

We are mixing it up this episode bringing back our previous guest Hueviews to and transforming her from interviewee to interviewer to speak to OONA.

We thought this concept would bring a different perspective and make for a really interesting conversation, we were right 😂🤭 Huge thanks to both Hueviews and OONA for this one.

OONA explores various themes around art, identity, performance, and challenges in the crypto art space, as well as societal and gender issues.

Key Topics

1. OONA's Identity:

2. Origins and Inspiration:

3. OONA’s Symbolism and Performance Art:

4. Performance Pieces:

5. Themes of Consent and Feminine Agency:

6. Tech and Blockchain Integration:

7. Upcoming Projects and Collaborations:

8. Social Impact and Advocacy:

Key Points of Interest

• Unique Performance Methods: OONA employs unconventional approaches like masking, live interactions, and unexpected venues (e.g., basketball courts, art fairs) to challenge traditional art norms and provoke reactions from audiences.

• Gender and Power Dynamics: OONA’s interactions with men in the crypto space often unveil underlying power struggles and societal biases, which she critiques through humour and bold actions.

• Artistic Process and Philosophy: OONA’s work reflects a blend of raw improvisation and carefully crafted themes, with each performance designed to create spontaneous, real interactions that challenge societal norms.

• Innovative Use of NFT and Blockchain: By integrating blockchain with art, OONA’s projects often include audience participation that’s documented and “tokenised,” which allows each performance to exist as a collectible piece, further pushing the boundaries of what art and interaction can mean in the Web3 era.

This conversation presents a thought-provoking conversation on how performance art can act as a powerful medium for social critique and explores the complexities of identity and body politics in contemporary art and crypto spaces. OONA's performances and her unfiltered storytelling reveal the provocative, often humorous, and always insightful nature of her work.

#48 GiselXFlorez, Exploring the Essence of Art & Light

4. Gisel's Projects and Collaborations: She discusses various projects, including her 'Moon Language' project, which involves photography of the moon paired with music to create a new form of expression. She also touches on other collaborative projects and her approach to integrating different art forms.

5. The Intersection of Art and Technology: The discussion explores how technology, particularly blockchain and NFTs, is creating new platforms and opportunities for artists. Gisel talks about how these technologies allow for more direct and varied expressions of creativity.

6. Art, Privacy, and Data Security: There's a segment of the conversation about the importance of privacy and data security in the digital age. Gisel expresses concerns about how personal data is harvested and the implications for artists and the general public.

7. The Future of Art and Society: The podcast touches upon broader themes of how art relates to societal changes, the role of artists in society, and how technology is reshaping both art creation and consumption.

8. Quantum Light Gerbil: The episode concludes with a discussion about involving the community in art creation, specifically mentioning a project called "Quantum Light Gerbil," where community members contribute ideas for a piece that Gisel will create.
