A Bitcoin Mine (in the Chinoiserie Style)

A Bitcoin Mine (in the Chinoiserie Style)

A depiction of a hand-drawn architectural cross section, of the type that might be found in the collection of John Soane.

The image shows a building in the orientalist style. The Chinoiserie genre of the 17th Century would often depict the orient as an intriguing place of strange and untold riches.

In this more contemporised version, the building houses a server farm producing cryptocurreny – perhaps the modern equivalent.

 

This piece was recently shown at the Royal Academy of Arts, at the invitation of Anne Desmet RA, and can be purchased via the institution at the link below.
