Hideki Tsukamoto

Hideki Tsukamoto is a generative artist and procedural creator who came to prominence in 2021 with the Art Blocks Curated release of his iconic Singularity collection. Establishing him as a key generative artist to watch, selected Tsukamoto works have since featured in the curated NFT collections and auctions at leading digital galleries and mainstream art houses such as Sotheby’s and Christie’s.

Featuring his trademark circular motifs and drawing on scientific concepts, Tsukamoto's artworks render vast themes in intricate detail, with thematic threads creating continuity and connection across his work. Inspired by cinematography and film post-production processes, his work has an expansive, cinematic quality, best exemplified in the forthcoming Monument collection.

Following is a summary of his collections sold in the public domain since 2019.

‘Monument’ 2024
