momoblocks, debuting in 2022, is a creative exploration of modular art. The system comprises of recognizable everyday objects, ingeniously combined with engineering components, machine parts, and references from pop culture and history. These enigmatic and sometimes subversive amalgams are firmly grounded in architectural realism, backed by credentials.
Each piece offers a fascinating vignette for us to peer into. Within these tightly encapsulated blocks, there's a sense of vast, labyrinthine space underpinning each configuration. We're merely catching a glimpse of what lies beyond. Inspired by the creative process of architecture and the procrastination that accompanies it, these scenes are meticulously hand-drawn and animated frame-by-frame.
Today we are excited to deliver Iván’s imaginative work through his momoblocks_society subscription on Hypersub. Join the society to be part of its next chapter by making choices about the theme, format, and other parameters, directly impacting the collection.
momoblocks_society is a monthly recurring NFT collection, where members receive limited edition airdrops. The size of each edition will fluctuate with the number of active subscribers. Members also get early access to selected drops, quarterly raffles of 1/1 art, and membership rewards. Uniquely, the token-gated chat includes exclusive access to WIP content with the ability to influence the creative process via polls.

With each passing month Iván's surrealist library will continue to grow, and we eagerly anticipate his latest configurations. Subscribe to cultivate and explore each new edition.
