Crypto Casino

Mural in downtown LV curated by 'Life is Beautiful '
The retro crypto slot machine questions gambling addiction
 
In a humorous representation, artist Leon Keer renders ‘the biggest slot machine in Vegas’ through the lens of a bold, retro aesthetic. The vibrant, saturated colours characteristic of the pop surrealist movement and vintage typography on the conventional casino gambling machine juxtapose the current 21st-century digital cryptocurrency wave. In place of fruit symbols, the rotating reels of ‘Crypto Casino’ reveal crypto coins, including Bitcoin, KRP and Tether. Moreover, the anamorphic mural presents an intriguing 3D illusion, inviting spectators to engage with it from various perspectives and ponder the artwork’s message.
