How do you know when a work is finished? Sometimes you don’t. @travess x @Art_Domains A practice can be less like a straight line and more like a river, branching, changing, and still moving.

Why collectible cards? A familiar format with a connection to art, nostalgia, and the simple joy of collecting. Watch the full conversation with @travess, @kikanicolela and @Art_Domains ↓ nitter.gq/Art_Domains/status/211…

“I guess the five cards are just different bits of my childhood, but with bugs taking over everything.” Meet @riniifish 🐛 For Kento Season 01: Web Nostalgia, she turns memories of growing up around technology into a world of her own.

“I don't always know where the story is going or what the final piece will look like. I usually just follow the characters and see what happens.” For Riniifish, each character’s unfolding story can become the beginning of a new artwork.

A childhood remembered through bugs: calling friends about nothing, watching them play games, and imagining a virtual pet of your own. Explore Riniifish’s five pieces for Kento Season 01 ↓ kento.art/artists/riniifish/

For @adiw_galih, Web Nostalgia means remembering when going online felt like a little adventure. One of Kento’s Open Call winners, the Indonesian artist revisits that feeling in After School, his card for Season 01: Web Nostalgia. 🧵

After School returns to a childhood when the internet felt full of possibilities. “It was a space where curiosity, exploration, friendship, and imagination could grow.” For Kento, that memory takes the form of a physical collectible. 🎴

Created digitally, After School begins on a screen. As a Kento card, it offers another way to experience the work: something to hold, enjoy, and collect. Explore @adiw_galih card and discover Season 01: Web Nostalgia → kento.art

🟩🟥 New Ways of Collecting Digital Art For International Artist Day, our Head Curator @KikaNicolela and @Travess, artist featured in Kento Season 01, are joining the @Art_Domains Artist Day Conference 2026. Their conversation, "The Easiest Door In", looks at one of the barriers to entering digital art: the complexity of crypto wallets and seed phrases, and how a pack of physical cards might offer a more accessible starting point. 🔽

“I miss ugly UI.” For Violet Forest (@violet_forest), web nostalgia lives in personal websites, customized pages, and the links that led from one person’s world to another. That spirit runs through her work for Kento Season 01. 🧵↓

Her Kento works are webcore.html and McBlingee.html. She wanted to make a 3D website where people could revisit the early internet, or experience a version of it for the first time. Her idea: a Windows XP landscape you could actually surf through, populated with preserved historical GIFs. "The work is the website, and the card is simply a physical bookmark to it, a link to the original."
