#5, (1/1) „changing times" by Sebastian Bieniek. From the „SOME TIMES“ series (of 16 different unique paintings). Originally painted in 2010 in oil on canvas.

The unique "digital counterpart" of a physical painting by the Berlin based artist.

In this conceptual NFT series , Pac-Man, an icon from the digital video games, that found a new home in Bieniek's painting in 2010, finds after 14 years being on canvas its way back into a new, now blockchain-based digital world.
Therefore this series is about the transformation of a video game icon that is almost reminiscent of the transformation of steam to water, water to ice and back again and because of this it's a kind of metaphor for the transformation itself.

It’s always the same basic situation, which consists of a constellation of two participants that changes again and again - as in a cycle - in a way that is at the same time humorous, profound and even political and socially critical.
