About Us
The SearchLight art collective was born from the rise of art on the blockchain in 2021. They rapidly grew an environment that supports inclusivity, diversity, and access for artists globally by providing education, exposure, exhibitions, and events to develop artists coming from a wide variety of verticals (Fine Art, Film, Gaming, Graphic Arts, etc.). SearchLight currently cultivates an artists pool of over 500 qualified blockchain artists. It is treated as a community resource with the goal of providing visibility to artists beyond the existing NFT marketplaces. The group is forming a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) in 2023 to foster ongoing community-driven art events, exhibitions, and experiences to support the NFT global arts community.
SearchLight.Art is a women-led, art organization also interested in innovation and helping to grow the Web 3.0 ecosystem. As such, we help prototype new products and platforms. Additionally, we provide signature events, performances, and exhibitions – helping technology platforms, DAOs, PFP teams, collectors, institutions, and other businesses achieve their goals in Web 3.0 through an informed cultural lens.
The organization is currently set up as an LLC and has a nonprofit arm for Web 3.0 education and onboarding.
