what's Deliverance?

Deliverance is a generative NFT art series created by artist and developer Valent. It builds upon his prior work Athanasia, advancing pixel-level distortion algorithms to explore themes of emotion, creation, destruction, darkness, and light. The algorithm undergoes repetition, force, and refusal to produce compositions that capture the ritualistic act of breaking through—evoking the process of becoming free rather than static freedom. Intentional color palettes, motion, and spatial restraint create immersive, non-figurative art where empty space holds as much purpose as form, allowing emotional circulation without overwhelming the viewer. Released as the inaugural curated drop on fxhash+, Deliverance mints on Ethereum L1 through a ranked auction of limited artist-curated editions. Valent's code-based approach prioritizes expressiveness, where the moment the algorithm "feels" manifests in each piece. Living between London and Washington DC, he uses technology as a mirror for human experience, refining algorithmic art to achieve devotional release amid crisis.
