In the past two years, Rhymezlikedimez has expanded his physical presence through a series of groundbreaking exhibitions. “Meet Me On Cloud Nine,” his first solo art exhibition, premiered at Miami Art Week in 2021. The immersive version of the exhibition was later showcased at Paris Fashion Week SS22. In 2022, he stunned audiences with his live performance, “Seeing Sounds,” in New York City.
“Dynamic Art Museum’s aim is to create a bridge from the Renaissance art to Crypto art, from Past to Future, running unique exhibitions. We started in 2021 organizing the First NFT exhibition in Milano, a Second one in 2022 and a Third edition in Beijing in 2023. In this new and Fourth exhibition in Milano we have created a Stage Room where artists can virtually meet art lovers. Two 4 metres screens are displaying the artist’s interviews and podcasts and his latest artworks giving to the public the opportunity to have a deeper and better understanding of the artist’s works. The idea of continuing to explore the world of NFTs was almost a compulsory choice, both because of our inexhaustible curiosity about this exuberant artistic movement as well as the numerous requests from our friends, visitors and collectors.” Pier Giulio Lanza, Founder and Director shared with Hypemoon.
Notably, Rhymezlikedimez’s artwork “Prolific” was featured in a prestigious auction held by Christie’s Auction House in 2022, further establishing his influence in the art world.

He believes that combining the right music with the right visuals creates an extra emotional dimension and connects people on a profound level. Through his art, he aims to demonstrate that music artists and the visuals accompanying their work are producing some of today’s most exceptional pieces of art.
When it comes to different mediums, Rhymezlikedimez embraces the unique powers of each. He sees paintings as a way to bring the artist’s presence into people’s homes, while digital art allows for the conveyance of time through movement and music.

Collaboration has played a pivotal role in Rhymezlikedimez’s artistic journey. Working with renowned figures such as KidSuper has provided him with fresh perspectives and enriched his creative vision.

Rhymezlikedimez believes that the best art emerges when different minds come together, and he is open to future collaborations that unfold organically.
“More than ever, collaboration is at the core of great art. The best art is created when different minds are put together.

Social media has been instrumental in Rhymezlikedimez’s artistic journey, providing him with a platform to engage with his audience and build a community around his art.
