Reflection on Digital Futures Through Art
Kialara Unloaded (Unfunded) "Excavatorelevator 3" Cold Storage
Bar 2015 Genuine PCGS, Ahonen Unlisted. Edition: 100. 55x90mm.
Serial #059. Signature Series. Non-denominated and unfunded. A
modern physical cryptocurrency artwork designed by artist Ricky
Allman. In collaboration with visionary artist Ricky Allman,
Kialara presents a special edition featuring three paintings from
his Excavatorelevator series (1-3). These works explore the
metaphor of mining-both physical and digital-as a lens for
understanding alternative economies and evolving technologies.
Allman envisions a future of self-sustaining, autonomous
architecture, where natural and digital systems are deeply
intertwined. The collaboration invites reflection on how abstract
networks and resource systems might shape the societies of
tomorrow.The Kialara Signature Series merges traditional Bitcoin-themed art with secure self-custody, transforming each piece into a functional storage device for a paper wallet and private key. Forgoing standard Bitcoin iconography, the series invites artists to interpret Bitcoin through their own creative lens, broadening its symbolic and cultural associations. Each edition features museum-quality materials, a removable silver coin, and signed authentication details-blending utility, craftsmanship, and artistic expression into a singular, collectible format.
