people disappear here open editions by Halsey

Halsey is a multi-hyphenate creative, known best for her multi-platinum recording career as a singer and songwriter. In addition to her musical talents, Halsey is a gifted visual artist who painted the cover of her New York Times Bestselling book of poetry I Would Leave Me If I Could in 2020, became the first artist to paint live on SNL in 2019, and released a time-lapse video of herself painting a larger than life replica of her Manic album cover in 2019 that now has over 28 million views on Youtube.
Halsey’s debut NFT collection entitled ‘People Disappear Here’ features individual animations of all seven characters from one of her paintings come to life in 3D set to an eerie soundtrack, as well as an animation of the original painting in full.
Halsey says of the collection “The characters are all inspired by figures that occurred in a series of sleep paralysis nightmares I had at home during the quarantine. After seven years of bed surfing hotel rooms around the world, adjusting to my own pitch black cave in California had a little bit of a learning curve. From toddler TV programming evil dentists, a child born with massive claws who scratched her way out of the womb, to a woman who stood at the foot of my bed and demanded I watch her masturbate. They were memorable to say the least. I’m excited to be sharing them in a space that prioritizes artist integrity, and in a market that perpetuates the value of intellectual property.”
The 1 of 1 “People Disappear Here” full painting auction comes with the original artwork of all the characters hand painted and signed by Halsey. The painting will be sent to the original buyer. Any secondary market purchases will not include the physical painting.
A percentage of the proceeds from the People Disappear Here NFT collection sales will be donated to My Friends Place, an organization that assists and supports the homeless youth of Los Angeles, as well as Carbon 180, a NGO dedicated to the mission of creating a world that removes more carbon that it emits.
