Via Punk4945:
“Excited to add a rare gem to my collection: XCOPY's ‘Rubble 1/5’. The intensity and depth of this artwork captures very well XCOPY’s signature style. I’m thrilled to be part of this chapter in the ever-evolving story of digital art and this amazing XCOPY collector community.”
Via Benji:
“Rubble is one of my favourite pieces, most collectors don’t know that it traces its origin back to XCopy’s Tumblr blog and was based on the design of a police station.”
The artwork has this description:
“-WANTED-
A dangerous fugitive. Rubble famously survived multiple law drone strikes.
CHARGES: Malicious thoughts. Undesirable cravings.”
