Whether we look at the inside of a technological device, or the images and services they produce, technology is a major form of art. In Jeff Gomes’ painting titled Satoshi Nakamoto, Gomes pays tribute to one of the most intellectual minds of our time.

Known to be the mystery man behind bitcoin, Nakamoto is believed to be a man or small anonymous group that came up with bitcoin’s encrypted technology. Nevertheless, Gomes represents Nakamoto’s genius and secret identity with his piece, which was also showcased at the Bitcoin Art Fair on March 6th.

The piece offers insight on what the inside of Nakamoto’s brilliant mind may look like, while somewhat concealing his identity. In the portrait, Nakamoto’s head is filled with blocks of bitcoin knowledge that would have never seen the light of day without his doing.
