Larva Labs is the pioneering artist duo behind some of the most iconic and influential projects in the digital art and blockchain space. Founded by software developers Matt Hall and John Watkinson, Larva Labs gained widespread acclaim with the creation of CryptoPunks in 2017— a collection of 10,000 uniquely generated characters that became one of the first NFT (non-fungible token) projects on the Ethereum blockchain. CryptoPunks played a significant role in establishing the foundation for the digital art and NFT movement, earning a place in prestigious collections, including those of major auction houses like Christie’s and Sotheby’s.
Beyond CryptoPunks, Larva Labs has continued to innovate with other projects like Autoglyphs—the first on-chain generative art platform—and Meebits, a 3D voxel character collection. Their work explores the intersection of technology, art, and culture, making Larva Labs a driving force in the evolution of digital art. Their projects have been widely recognized and celebrated for pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in the digital and crypto art world.
