David Ariew, is a celebrated 3D digital artist. In his professional career, Ariew has collaborated with top artists and celebrities, including Katy Perry, Zedd, Keith Urban, Drake, and Deadmau5. In addition, he’s revered as an influential educator in the 3D domain; his courses and tutorials have played pivotal roles in shaping the skills of many emerging digital artists. In 2021, David began his NFT journey by pioneering ‘infinite mirror rooms,’ a digital art form that merges the immersive qualities of 3D with the intricate fractal rendering and geometry typical of generative art. His innovative approach uses digitally native media to create vast, virtual landscapes that defy reproduction in physical form.

Throughout 2022 and 2023, David explored new creative avenues, moving beyond 2D video to experiment with different mediums. This exploration culminated in his longest work to date - Quantum Ascension is an 11-minute visual meditation crafted to induce tranquility in the viewer. This piece serves as the exclusive 2D representation of Quantum Stargate, an immersive room experience that debuted at the 2023 Digital Art Fair in Hong Kong, where Ariew earned the title of Immersive Room Artist of the Year.

"Embark on a voyage beyond the tangible, where time stretches and realms converge. Ascend through layers of ethereal wonder, guided by unseen forces towards the apex of enlightenment."
