Description
No additional caption — the title IS the statement.
Animated GIF with a glitch/datamosh aesthetic: a car surrounded by explosion and fire, highly saturated pink/magenta/yellow digital glitch overlaid on a photographic base. Fields and blue sky in the background. The intensity and urgency of the image mirrors the title — “exigent circumstances” in legal/emergency usage denotes a situation of such pressing necessity that ordinary procedures must be suspended.
First known gallery/curated exhibition sale in the Max Capacity archive. SOVREIGN listed the work on behalf of Max Capacity at 1,000 ꜩ; sold via accepted offer at 500 oXTZ (~$264) to @absurdeity.tez.
