In the wine business, there is a fine process of blind wine tasting, so that they are assessed more accurately and objectively.

Imagine an art online store where the buyer doesn’t have instant access to the information about the artist.  They are just exploring the space and are closely observing the artworks.  After showing the interest in artwork, they can digitally meet the respective artist, who will exclusively and personally tell the story about the artwork. This is just a beginning…. What if your and the artist’s avatars will meet in a Metaverse gallery….

At The Blind Art, the main idea is to give every artist, despite their brand value, public recognition, or popularity – equal opportunity to be seen, heard, recognized and appreciated.
