PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Another Kingdom: Dichotomy is the newest chapter in the chess series within the Yoomoota art universe, exploring the allegorical struggle between two kingdoms. The piece illustrates the confrontation of light and darkness, both within the human soul and the world. This chess goes beyond traditional strategy games, inviting players to face the ethical dilemmas inherent in their choices. Here, there is no room for hesitation, complex motivations, or shades of gray — only pure opposition, with nothing in between.

The creation process involves 3D printing, molding, sculpting, and polymer casting, complemented by hand finishing and acrylic painting. Each set includes an NFC chip, certifying the artwork’s authenticity and recording its digital provenance.

SPECIFICATIONS:
Combined technique with hack-working craft is used in chess. The manufacture of each set has the following stages: fine-detailed 3D printing from photopolymer plastic, molding, modeling, polymeric casting, manual processing of objects and acrylic painting.
