Art that weighs something.
MicroArts is an open platform where you can simply publish your art for free, with the door wide open to sell your originals or let us turn them into a physical MicroArt. Every piece you post gets a page of its own and a standing of its own, shining out into search engines and the open world. And when you connect a physical piece via our NFC chip, you create an unbreakable proof of authenticity and a bridge from the physical world to the artwork's digital page, opening new ways for people to find you (and your socials) and dive deeper into your art.
But this platform does things fundamentally different.
There are no likes, because a like cannot carry how much you enjoyed something, only that you did. Instead, people give Gravity: recognition that costs the giver Gravity of their own.
For the first time, you can see where your art sits on a map of art, and who its neighbors are. The Universe Map is drawn by the Gravity economy, not by an algorithm trained to maximize profit.
Then comes the bridge. A posted image can become a hand-sized MicroArt, 3D printed and CNC milled from a single piece, sealed in epoxy with an encrypted NFC chip inside that connects it back to its page, shipped worldwide by letter. When a piece sells, the artist gets paid. Both worlds, one object.

The Universe Map
Explore a map evolved out of taste.
The living map of artworks and artists.
Two things we make.
The artwork you can hold.
75 mm wide, sealed in epoxy, encrypted chip inside. Handmade one at a time, shipped worldwide by letter. From 24,99 €.
A digital life for originals.
The encrypted tag on its own. Fix it to a painting or a sculpture: one tap opens the piece's page on MicroArts.
No blockchain, no NFTs. The chip is a physical encrypted NFC chip: you tap it with a phone.
One lab. Every piece.
MicroArts is an independent project. The platform, the production line and the sealed cards are designed, coded and made in one place: by hand, one at a time. No warehouse, no print farm.
The human behind it is Lasse Leendertz, an artist whose main goal is to lower the barrier to creating art, alone or together, and to spark joy in new groups of people starting to collect real art. Just cheaper, thanks to the smaller size.
