About the work

Do you feel the tension—the tension of this critical moment in history in which starkly different forms of money, and distinct means of holding each, coexist?

On the Precipice evokes the moment, with a palette representative of the U.S. dollar and Bitcoin and color-rich pattern reflecting an oscillation within each and between the two, while converging lines and a solitary figure draw attention toward an uncertain, unsettling threshold.

Altogether, the work's elements highlight what is at stake with the consequential monetary choices now before us. Each of us is the depicted figure, standing on the precipice of this moment—with our decisions on these choices ultimately deciding our individual fates and informing our collective future.

Selected, interpreted, and presented by Start with Sats Studio.
