01 — THE PROJECT
The unrepeatable lives
in the smallest details.
PERLA begins with a simple idea: no two pearls are exactly alike. Code shapes their volume, their irregularities and the nuances of their surface.
Before each pearl stands an imagined facade, a mural of coloured ribbons and a tree. This world curves across the nacre as a slow-moving light changes the way we see it.

Network, edition size and price to be confirmed.
No wallet connection is needed to explore.
Each seed defines its form,
its colour and its surroundings.
A closer look.
Is this an image or an animated artwork?
The main pearl is generated in your browser using p5.js and shaders. Light moves slowly across its surface and the background. The six gallery images are captures from the same generator.
What changes from one pearl to another?
The seed determines the family, proportions, hues, background and mural in the reflected surroundings. The same seed retains these characteristics whenever it is opened again.
Can I collect one yet?
Not yet. This page introduces the project and lets you explore sample artworks. Before minting opens, we will publish the network, edition size, price and verified contract address.
