Art and Blockchain Technology

All my creations exist as NFTs, a certification technology based on blockchain.

NFT is just a use of blockchain technology - a certification tool that is becoming democratized by necessity in the face of artificial intelligence and generated content (which I also use without any scruples).

This technology allows authenticating and tracing the origin of works in a world where creation becomes increasingly fluid between human and machine.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about H2CO3 collections

What is an H2CO3 art collection?

H2CO3 collections are divided into two categories: contemporary art (physical installations with skeletons, exhibited in Bordeaux's urban space and in the garden of Les Vivres de l'Art) and digital art (microscope photography and AI creations as NFTs on Ethereum and Polygon blockchains). Each collection explores civilizational mechanisms, transformation cycles, and invisible forces that structure our world.

How to buy a work from the digital collection?

Digital collections are available on OpenSea (Ethereum and Polygon). To buy:
1. Create a crypto wallet (MetaMask recommended)
2. Add ETH or MATIC
3. Connect on OpenSea
4. Visit the collection and buy the artwork you like

Works on Polygon are generally more financially accessible (very low transaction fees).

Why photograph through a microscope?

The microscope reveals structures invisible to the naked eye: the hidden beauty of banknotes (Econoscopic), the complexity of living organisms (Pareidolia Microscopia), the crystalline geometry of minerals (Grimmstein), or the plant history of gardens (Gardens of Siaurac). By changing scale, these photographs question our perception of reality and reveal that what we see is never entirely what is.

Are physical collections for sale?

Physical installations (Cycles & Civilizations, The Seven, What's the Price of War, Price of Freedom: 40cts) are unique works currently exhibited in Bordeaux. Some will soon be available as NFTs to allow digital certification and wider accessibility. For any acquisition or exhibition request, contact me via social networks.

What is pareidolia?

Pareidolia is the psychological phenomenon that makes us see faces or familiar shapes in random images (clouds, stains, textures). The Pareidolia Microscopia collection explores this mechanism: by observing living organisms under a microscope, our brain projects meaning, narratives, and emotions. It's not the image that contains these shapes, it's our perception that creates them.

Which blockchain do you use for NFTs?

Mainly Ethereum (for major collections like Econoscopic, Pareidolia Microscopia, Grimmstein) and Polygon (for more financially accessible collections). Ethereum offers maximum security and recognition, while Polygon allows almost zero transaction fees, making digital art accessible to everyone.

What is the artistic approach behind these collections?

My work explores civilizational causality mechanisms: how collective choices (fossil fuels, nuclear, chemistry, digitization) structure our societies and produce systemic consequences. Skeletons (contemporary art) symbolize the life and death cycles of civilizations. Microscope photography (digital art) reveals that the world's complexity exists at all scales. Art here becomes a tool for revealing invisible forces.

Can I exhibit or use the artworks I purchase?

If you buy an NFT, you own the certificate of ownership of the digital artwork and can display it, exhibit it, or resell it. However, you do not own commercial reproduction rights (they remain with the artist). For any commercial, media, or editorial use, please contact me to obtain a license.

The Seven

The Seven

Seven objects of constraint to question the transformation of human sins into economic and social engines.

Cycles & Civilisations

Cycles & Civilisations

Systemic study of a civilizational cycle: causes, generational pivot, and consequences of a world that has reached saturation.

Year: 2024 Works: 7

Price of freedom: 40cts

Freedom questioned through the elementary gestures of knowledge: speaking, reading, writing, learning.

Digital Art

Econoscopic

A collection of microscope photographs of banknotes from different eras and countries. By observing currency very closely, Econoscopic questions its real function, its invisible mechanisms, and its central role in economic crises, wars, and civilizational collapses. Currency appears here as a tool of stability as much as imbalance, between inflation, deflation, and loss of collective trust.

Year: 2025 Works: 1596
Econoscopic
Pareidolia Microscopia

Pareidolia Microscopia

A series of microscope photographs of living organisms collected from nature. Through the phenomenon of pareidolia, this collection explores how the human brain projects meaning, shapes, and narratives onto the living. What we see is never entirely what is: perception here becomes a prism, revealing both the beauty of the world and the biases of our gaze.

Year: 2022 Works: 316

Grimmstein

Microscope photographs of stones carved by the lapidary's hand, from raw matter to precious stone. Grimmstein seeks the structural beauty of minerals, between crystalline complexity and geometric simplicity, where time, pressure, and human gesture meet.

Year: 2023 Works: 342
Grimmstein
Micromension

Micromension

A collection of 3D mise en abyme, in GIF form, derived from the Pareidolia series. The images fold back on themselves, blurring scales and landmarks, to question perception, repetition, and depth in digital worlds.

Year: 2024 Works: 581

Engrave, Print and Microscope

A collection of microscope photographs created from print and engraving works by Jeanne Duchein. The microscope here becomes a reading tool, revealing the material, gesture, and invisible accidents of printing and engraving.

Year: 2023 Works: 101

Les Jardins de Siaurac

Les Jardins de Siaurac

An artistic exploration of microscope photographs of the historic gardens of Siaurac. The collection reveals plant heritage invisible to the naked eye, where the history of the place merges with the intimate structures of living things.

Year: 2024 Works: 65

Les Jardins des Vivres de l'Art

An artistic exploration of microscope photographs of the garden of Les Vivres de l'Art in Bordeaux. By changing scale, this series questions the link between artistic creation, living space, and the memory of urban places.

Year: 2024 Works: 56

IAbsurd Cognition

IAbsurd Cognition

An exploration of the limits of artificial intelligence and the absurd. From a script generating meaningless sentences, images are produced by AI to show that, despite its power, the tool remains dependent on the questions asked. AI does not exempt humans from their duty to learn, discern, and elevate themselves.

Year: 2023 Works: 197

IAffect Consciousness

A free reflection on artificial consciousness, emotions, and our common future. Through AI-generated images, the collection oscillates between philosophy, societal observation, and humor, letting thought drift as a space for sensitive experimentation.

Year: 2023 Works: 50
IAffect Consciousness
Everything is movement

Everything is movement

A series of microscope videos around microfluidics and chemical reactions. This collection reminds us that all matter is in perpetual motion and that the balance of the world — from the microscopic to the cosmic — rests on invisible but constant dynamics.

Year: 2022 Works: 43

Philateloscopic

A collection of microscope photographs of historic postage stamps. Philateloscopic questions the conditions of information circulation before the digital era, the relationship to long time, and how these delays shaped reflection, writing, and human exchanges.
