PKOK HYPERSUB AIRDROP #25
*The Blues*
The color blue has held profound significance in art throughout history, evoking feelings of calm, depth, and spirituality. From the rich ultramarine of Renaissance paintings, often reserved for the robes of the Virgin Mary, to the vibrant blues of modern artists like Yves Klein, who saw the color as a symbol of infinity, blue has been used to explore both the material and the transcendental.
Blue has the power to invoke the sky and the sea, suggesting expansiveness and freedom, while also expressing melancholy, as seen in Picasso's Blue Period, where the color became synonymous with human suffering and isolation.
Delve into this thread to find out more about the immensely talented artists who provided the blue artworks included in this airdrop: @karenjerzyk @barbarabezina @yx3io @grims, @soviscous.eth 12 replies

Karen Jerzyk @karenjerzyk is a multidisciplinary artist whose photography transports viewers into haunting, surreal worlds where emotions and memories collide. With a background in filmmaking, set design, sculpture, and painting, she meticulously constructs elaborate environments, using abandoned spaces as both backdrops and metaphors. Her images, drenched in dramatic lighting and rich symbolism, explore themes of solitude, loss, and resilience—turning decayed locations into powerful narratives of the human condition.
At the core of Jerzyk’s work is a fascination with the fragile balance between impermanence and endurance. Series like *Last Days of Earth* showcase human subjects in desolate, crumbling spaces, highlighting the contrast between vulnerability and strength. Though melancholic, her work is not without hope; it speaks to transformation, survival, and the beauty found in decay. 1 reply
