Fragments of Segments Collection

Description : Fragments is a collection of 96 still images (1024x1024), capturing ephemeral moments from the generative works Segments [horizontal] and Segments [vertical], by Sébastien Pitt. Each frame distills the interplay of light, form, and texture, suspending movement at the threshold of transformation. These stills retain the depth and rhythm of the original compositions, offering glimpses into shifting densities and fleeting structures. Though they stand as autonomous pieces, they recall the tradition of miniature painting, where intricate compositions condense vast narratives into intimate spaces. Yet, their essence is drawn from a continuous motion—one that extends beyond the frame for those who follow its traces.

Deployed across blockchains such as Polygon and Linea, with 342 234 fragments minted since March 12, 2025, Fragments of Segments forms part of a broader reflection on circulation, presence, and value in digital art. Each fragment holds not only a still image, but also a cryptographic memory: an embedded signature and a dynamic QR portal that reconnects it to its generative origin.

The fragment becomes a living threshold — linking the viewer back to the evolving landscape of Segments, offering a layered experience that extends far beyond the still frame. Rather than being a static asset, each fragment invites a dialogue — a reconnection with the flow from which it emerged. It is through these portals that collectors are invited to move beyond possession, entering into an active engagement with the living, shifting nature of the original works.

This project was proposed to LiveArt as part of a FreeMint campaign, not simply to expand visibility, but to explore new modes of distribution, where sovereignty, traceability, and poetic activation co-exist.

Fragments of Segments offers a vision of a fragmented yet sovereign ecosystem, where each image becomes both a point of access and an act of memory — an invitation to trace back the origins of movement, form, and resonance.
