What Binds Us

Curated and Presented by Saatchi Art

Saatchi Art is pleased to present “What Binds Us” – a fine art exhibition of NFTs featuring a world-class trio of digital artists. This series of artwork will be the first of its kind for Saatchi Art as Nifty Gateway Publishers.

About the Drop

We live in a fast-paced society that runs on the internet, and new information travels instantaneously from one corner of the world to the next. From news stories and soundbites to television and popular culture, we consume vast amounts of media in an instant. Smartphones and wireless internet allow us to easily send a message or share a thought, in seconds. Further, social media apps with billions of users a day provide us with countless ways to engage and stay in touch with others.

The ability to connect with others is right at our fingertips, but is that connection meaningful? Constant communication keeps us engaged and in-the-know, but does it bring us closer together?

For this debut drop with Nifty Gateway, Saatchi Art asked three of our top artists to answer this question: what does meaningful human connection in the modern world look like to you?
