Botto’s ‘Mirror Stages: Seed’ is the top-voted artwork, or ‘fragment’, from a pool of 69 created and curated by Botto, and voted on by BottoDAO. It was selected by the DAO as the shared point of origin for all works produced in Botto’s Mirror Stages installation at Art Basel Hong Kong 2026. The seed image forms the aesthetic cornerstone of all 20 pieces, which are then generatively transformed in a series of two-hour sessions. To commemorate its crucial role in this milestone installation, the seed image is offered as an open edition throughout the course of the fair.
