Yatreda's latest project, "Adam and Hewan", encompasses 13 video loop artworks, each minted as a unique edition NFT. This project draws inspiration from the age-old tale of Adam and Hewan, reimagined through the modern and innovative perspective of the collective. This collection seamlessly follows the collective's previous successful series such as "Strong Hair", "Movement of the Ancestors", and "Kingdoms of Ethiopia".

"In ancient cave churches in Ethiopia, you can find Adam and Hewan paintings. Many parts of the creation story are bouncing around in my head. Everyone questions “where do we come from?” The beginning of all stories is Adam and Hewan.

But the creation itself is just a small part of this story. For me, the most interesting part that connects with humans today is the story of sin. Imagine that even when humans were given everything, they still messed up and were tempted to choose the wrong thing. (I think the crypto world knows the feeling of having everything, and then suddenly have nothing!) There was just one rule given not to break, and that was the rule they were tempted with. That feels familiar. A lot of this series is about being kicked out of paradise, and living the rest of your life “by the sweat of your brow.”"
