Renowned Photographer Andrew Macpherson on BTC 📸
Acclaimed photographer Andrew Macpherson is releasing his first series of photographs inscribed onto the Bitcoin blockchain as Ordinals, exclusively on Gamma.
"The Sensual Sculpture Series" marks the beginning of a 9-image collection. Inspired by the legend of the Temple Girls, who danced in the temples of the Goddess religions throughout the Mediterranean, as well as the works of Rodin and the erotic sculptures carved on temples across Asia, this series delves into the exploration of sensuality and form.
Macpherson, whose archive was tragically lost in a fire in 1996, chose to embrace the transformative power of the blockchain to preserve and share his work. With this release, he aims to challenge the societal shame historically imposed on erotic art, seeking to reclaim and celebrate its bold, unapologetic beauty.
Coming soon on Gamma.
Meet Andrew in more detail here.

Partner of the Week 🎨
Meet Emil MTO, a digital artist based in Sweden, embarked on his artistic journey in late 2021. After years of searching for purpose, he rekindled a long-lost passion for creating, a pursuit he had abandoned as life took him in different directions. This rediscovery allowed him to express himself more deeply, forging a stronger connection to reality through art.
