Be ready for the future

Galleries that embrace innovation secure their future and unlock long-term success

How will the art world change in the next decade?

In the next decade, the art world is expected to continue evolving rapidly, with technology at the forefront. Digital Original empowers galleries to stay ahead by addressing challenges such as digital ownership and new opportunities in art collecting. As online auctions and digital transactions become the norm, our solutions ensure that galleries are well-prepared for the future.

How we bridge the physical and digital worlds for galleries

Introducing the Dual Art Ownership concept - our revolutionary solution ensuring legally recognized ownership of art in both physical and digital forms, crafted to address the evolving challenges of our digital era.

Physical Original + Digital Original

Dual art Ownership

What’s the technology behind the product

Digital Original transforms physical artworks into exceptional digital originals using our advanced Digital Light Capture Technology™ (DLCT). Supported by a robust blockchain signature and legal regulations, our technology ensures that each piece remains unique and secure.

How does the final product look

The final product is a digital original counterpart of physical artwork, that can exist only in one exemplar, and is equal by criteria of value and price. It consists of a high-resolution image, a unique code recorded in the blockchain within the Digital Original register system, and a proof of authenticity granted exclusively by the artist or copyright holder. This technology also enables artists to earn royalties from both the physical and digital versions without needing to transition into digital artistry.

What is DLCT?

We began by photographing one of the founders' private art collection, but the quality fell far short of our standards. Determined to preserve these artworks in their truest form, we decided to capture them without any Photoshop enhancements — just pure, high-quality imagery. This led us to develop Digital Light Capture Technology™ (DLCT), our advanced method for photographing art.

DLCT uses certified equipment, precise lighting, and strict quality control to achieve resolutions up to 400 Mpx and true 16-bit color depth. With DLCT, we ensure that digital versions maintain the integrity and quality of the physical artwork, offering a truly unique experience of owning both.

    “Our future will undoubtedly see a shift in ownership preferences, which will most likely also have an impact on how art is collected and owned. This does not necessarily undermine the value of physical art; but it introduces a broader acceptance of digital and dual ownership. Digital Original provides here a seamless solution, inviting galleries, artists, and collectors to become involved in this transformative journey.”

    “For me, what is important is not technology. For me, art always has to be served by technology, not art serving technology. I think what is important today is to be conscious that we are experiencing the transformation of the human being.”
