Jack Kaido is an abstract painter.

He creates lifelike abstract paintings in digital’s endlessly-reproducible form, then plays with this by minting 1/1 only editions, just like real paintings — a buyer becomes the only person worldwide to own the painting.

Kaido experiments with colours through colour theory and seeks to capture moments, memories, emotions, landscapes and ideas in his paintings. This capturing is viewed as a form of photograph of an experienced inner moment, or in other words, ’polaroids of the within’.

His first series 'Polaroids' is comprised of 30 paintings, and the series takes its title and reflections from #11 in the series. His work takes great influence from the art of the American Abstract Expressionists of the 1950s, and in particular, Willem de Kooning and Joan Mitchell. 

Polaroids V5

A lot of people hate being proved wrong, they loathe being refuted. They forget that the best way to grow your mind, is not to always refute the thoughts, ideas and prejudices of others, but your own.

This 1/1 painting was made and minted in Feb 2021.
