Valentina Picozzi, an Italian artist, and orthodontist, became a Bitcoiner in 2012 and has been an activist artist since.
A new disappearing statue honoring Bitcoin founder Satoshi Nakamoto, which was unveiled in Lugano, Switzerland, on the weekend, took 18 months of study and three months to build, says the artist behind the new work.
Valentina Picozzi, the artist behind the Satoshigallery handle on X, said the project had the goal of connecting people to Bitcoin (BTC) culture through art. She said her latest creation took 21 months total to complete because of its special features.
Picozzi, an Italian artist and orthodontist, first found Bitcoin in early 2012 and since then has been working as an activist artist.
