Digital Gold – Inflation, AI Labour, and the Monetary Reset
This work exists within a closed canon of The Alchemy Series
The bull represents the volatile global market — powerful, unpredictable, impossible to tame.
The bear figure rides atop the chaos, echoing the modern struggle between inflation, central bank policies, and personal survival.
Embedded motifs of AI humanoids ($42k), fiat decay, Bitcoin as escape hatch, and hyper-liquidity create a layered visual narrative about money, value, and identity in 2025.
This artwork speaks directly to collectors who recognise the seismic shift from traditional economics to the emerging digital economy.
It’s bold, unapologetic, and culturally relevant — a snapshot of a turning point in financial history.
