artKYOTO 2022" is a project commemorating the relocation of the Agency for Cultural Affairs, that aims to communicate the value and potential of art to the rest of Japan and to the world. It was held in the Ninomaru Palace Kitchen and Goshojo of Nijo Castle (places which are not open to the public), in collaboration with “ART WALK KYOTO,”

​​GASHO2.0 exhibited a work by Bored Ape Yacht Club, one of NFT’s representative works, in “artKYOTO 2022,” which attracted a great deal of attention from people who are not familiar with NFT.

We will continue to support and assist people to purchase NFT through GASHO’s 2.5D art as well as let people who usually purchase art know about the existence of NFT.

We will actively participate in art fairs and other events to raise awareness and increase the potential of NFT.

About GASHO2.0

GASHO2.0 (https://twitter.com/GASHO_2_0) is a project that creates the highest quality physical art from NFT.

GASHO2.0 uses special Japanese painting techniques to create a new art experience expressed in 2.5D.

About the technology

The artwork offered by GASHO2.0 is produced in two steps. First, the NFT is divided in 16 layers of data. Second, the 16 layers of the NFT are painted thickly and repeatedly on an aluminum sheet to create a three-dimensional 2.5D representation.

Our technology is based on traditional Japanese painting technology that is used for high-brand and luxury hotel interiors.

This artwork is highly durable due to its aluminum material and can maintain its quality for more than 10 years in any environment, including high temperature and humidity.

GASHO Frame

GASHO has developed the “GASHO Frame,” a 2.5D art frame with a hardware wallet included.

The “GASHO Frame” allows for the seamless ownership of NFTs by the buyer, who can then sell the 2.5D art framed in the “GASHO Frame” as a set of NFTs.

GASHO2.0 will also provide services to support the opening of wallets and accounts in the future.

The GASHO Frame was developed as a prototype. A hardware wallet can be included on the back of the frame.

​​ Currently, it must be said that purchasing and holding NFTs presents some hurdles.

However, with GASHO Frame, the experience of owning NFTs becomes possible without having to open a METAMASK or any crypto account.

By maximizing the strengths of GASHO 2.0, we will expand the awareness of NFTs among those who are not familiar with them and provide the joy of owning NFTs.
