Virtual art is a new art market with the growth of the Internet. In the past, it was hard for us to imagine that collectors would buy a work that did not exist in reality. All this, however, has changed with the rise of NFT.
虚拟艺术品是伴随互联网生长的新生艺术品市场，在以前，我们很难想象收藏家会去购买一件在现实中并不存在的作品。而这一切，都随着NFT的崛起而变得不同。

NFT, which stands for Non-Fungible Token, is based on blockchain technology and can act as a digital certificate of ownership that enables digital artwork or designs to be bought, sold, and collected. With the rapid development of NFT, undervalued digital creators can make their works rarer. Artworks can be digitally encrypted and become Crypto Art. Buying Crypto Art through Art investment also becomes a more modern investment method.
NFT的全称是Non-Fungible Token，基于区块链技术，NFT可以充当数字所有权证书，使数字艺术品或设计能够被购买、出售和收集。随着 NFT的迅速发展，被低估的数位创作者们可以让自己作品变得更为稀有，艺术作品可以被数字加密而成为加密艺术品(Crypto Art)，通过艺术投资来购买Crypto Art 也变相成为一种更现代化的投资方法。
More importantly, it opens up new possibilities for artists working on social media. Not every artist’s work has the opportunity to be exhibited in galleries, and online creation has become almost a one-way favor for social media, but there is no financial reward for artists. However, the emergence of Crypto Art gives these artists the opportunity to form a sustainable closed-loop in terms of artistic creation and economic income.
更为关键的是，它为在社交媒体上进行创作的艺术家提供了新的可能。要知道，并不是每个艺术家的的作品都有机会在画廊中展出，线上创作几乎成为了一种为社交媒体免费赋能但没有经济回报的事情。然而，Crypto Art的出现可以让这些艺术家在艺术创作和经济收入上有机会形成可持续的闭环。
Krista Kim，Mars House，2020
Just recently, Krista Kim sold the world’s first NFT virtual room, Mars House (2020), for $512,000, which is a hefty price tag.
就在最近，克丽斯塔·金以51.2万美元的价格出售了世界上的第一座NFT虚拟房间Mars House (2020)，这是一个不菲的价格。
Krista Kim is a contemporary artist who has lived in Seoul, Tokyo, and Singapore. She earned her Masters of Arts Fine Arts from La Salle College of the Arts / Goldsmiths College UK in 2014. She completed her undergraduate studies in Political Science at the University of Toronto.
克丽斯塔·金是一位当代艺术家，曾在首尔、东京和新加坡生活过。她在多伦多大学完成了政治学的本科学习，并于2014年获得了英国拉萨尔艺术学院/金匠学院的艺术硕士学位。
Krista Kim wrote the “Techism manifesto“ in 2015, and she is best known for her use of manipulating digital images of LED lights to create abstract expressionist works that evoke the sublime.
在2015年，克丽斯塔撰写了《技术主义宣言》，她最著名的作品是利用LED灯的数字图像创作抽象表现主义作品，这些作品唤起观众内心的崇高感。

When asked what prompt Krista Kim established the Techism movement, she said: “Once everyone had a smartphone in their hand, the game changed. Everyone became addicted to their devices on a whole new level. I began to wonder who controls and collects all of this? It felt like a real opportunity for certain companies and power structures to easily prey on people like never before in human history.”
当克丽斯塔被问到为什么要推进这种技术主义运动的时候，她说：“一旦每个人都拥有了智能手机，这个世界的规则就变了，所有人都在更高的水平上沉迷于虚拟的网络世界。我开始好奇，是谁控制了这一切，又是谁在收集人们的信息。而这对于大公司和社会权力结构来说，将是一个新的机会去掠夺普通的人民。这在人类的历史上从来没有发生过。”
Based on these digital light and shadow art creations, Kim designed the house in 2020. Krista Kim worked with an architect to render the house using Unreal Engine, software that is commonly used to create video games. She describes the house, which overlooks a moody mountain range and features an open-plan design and floor-to-ceiling glass walls, as a “light sculpture”.
在这些数字光影艺术创作的基础上，克丽斯塔在2020年设计了这所房子。这是一个体现她冥想设计哲学的空间。她与一位建筑师合作，使用Unreal Engine（一种常用来制作视频游戏的软件）来渲染整座房子。这座房子俯瞰着一座光影波动的山脉并采用开放式设计，从地面到天花板都是玻璃墙，克丽斯塔把它描述为“光的雕塑”。
“Soon, we will all live in AR through our real environments using SuperWorld, a new app that has mapped the entire world for AR interface. Virtual real estate based on the real world can be purchased on SuperWorld, and in the very near future, this app will allow us to mint 3D NFTs and create a marketplace of digital AR assets,”
“很快，我们所有人都将通过使用SuperWorld(一款为VR绘制整个世界地图的应用程序)的来体验真实的VR世界。基于真实世界的虚拟房地产可以在SuperWorld上购买，在不久的将来，这个应用程序将允许我们制造3D NFT作品和创建数字AR资产的市场.”
This would be revolutionary in many ways. The creation of digital homes and houses is in line with the growing trend of augmented reality. The buyer of Mars House will be sent a digital 3D file of it. The NFT exists as an authentication certificate that is stored on a blockchain, equivalent to a title deed for a real house, which verifies that the buyer owns it. Even in the near future, with the development of technology, the content of virtual space can actually be realized on the surface of Mars.
这在很多方面都会是革命性的。数字家庭与房屋的制作符合了增强现实VR正在流行的趋势。火星屋的买家将收到一份数字3D文件，NFT作为它基于区块链的认证证书，相当于一套真实的房子的地契。甚至在不久的将来，随着科技的发展，虚拟空间的内容真的可以在火星表面实现。
