Beeple’s ‘HUMAN ONE’ sold online by the auction house Christie’s for $28.9 million, which was almost double the expected price. Claimed to be the first portrait of a human born in the metaverse, this 3D video sculpture is 7-feet high featuring dystopian imagery — a person in a space helmet striding through changing landscapes, within a 4x4-foot box.
The artist Mike Winkelmann known as Beeple online, sold ‘Everydays: The First 5000 Days’ at $69 million through the same auction house, earlier this year.
