Oseanworld

Oseanworld is an Atlanta based, multi disciplinary artist working across 3D and CGI animation, music, and NFT collaboration. His central body of work is the Oseanworld universe, a self described cyber world built over several years, most publicly expressed through the Yameii project made with producer and rapper Deko. A single 2022 profile attributes an unconfirmed legal name to the person behind the project; because that claim is not independently corroborated, it is not repeated here.

No exact birth date, birthplace, or record of formal art education has been found in any credible, citable source; one 2022 era profile refers to him as 28 years old but gives no date from which a birth year could be reliably calculated. Multiple profiles from 2021 onward, including features in art and culture outlets and a video interview, describe him in the present tense as an active, working artist, and no obituary, memorial notice, or gallery statement indicating his death has surfaced. As of this writing he should be treated as living.

His public trajectory runs through a cluster of 2021 to 2022 activity: inclusion in Sotheby's Natively Digital NFT sale and Christie's x OpenSea sale in 2021, a lot in a Sotheby's Contemporary Art Day Auction the same year, a collaboration with 21 Savage presented at ComplexCon by Complex and Bose in 2022, and a live Yameii and Friends event in New York City in November 2022. A single secondary source, a LinkedIn post from a Realm.art executive, also credits the artist with a 2021 feature in Pitchfork's The Year in Music on TikTok and selection as one of sixteen artists in Instagram's 2022 Digital Collectibles initiative; neither claim is independently corroborated in this research, so both are noted here only as reported, not confirmed.

Coverage of Oseanworld comes largely from digital culture and music press rather than traditional art criticism. Outlets including Highsnobiety, Sabukaru, and WAU frame him as a leading figure in internet and NFT influenced art, building an anime and vocaloid influenced visual universe that blends 3D animation, music, and online fandom. A secondary source (a LinkedIn post from a Realm.art executive) states that The New York Times and Pitchfork have covered the Yameii project and that Kanye West shared his artwork on social media; the underlying New York Times piece was not directly located in this research and that claim should be treated as lower confidence. No verbatim, attributable critic quote from a named critic at a major outlet could be confirmed, so none is reproduced here.

Oseanworld's market is defined more by participation than by a documented price history. His work has surfaced in group NFT sales at two major auction houses, Sotheby's and Christie's, and in a Sotheby's Contemporary Art Day Auction lot titled RADIO!, but no publicly available source gives a confirmed hammer price, currency, or exact sale date for any of these appearances. Broad 2026 surveys of the most expensive art, collectibles, and NFT sales do not list Oseanworld, and no specialist auction database entry with pricing could be located. No catalogue raisonne exists, and no gallery or estate currently lists him among represented artists in any source found; his sales to date have run through platform curated auctions rather than traditional gallery representation. No museum collection holdings are documented.

This is a lower certainty profile relative to established market artists. There is no catalogue raisonne, no confirmed current gallery or estate representation, no confirmed museum collection holdings, and no verifiable all time auction record with a specific work, price, and date, despite documented participation in Sotheby's and Christie's NFT sales. Authenticity for NFT based work of this kind is generally established through on chain provenance and platform minting records rather than a traditional studio archive. Collectors should treat Oseanworld as an emerging, digital native practice with a thin and largely unverified public sales record, and should expect any pricing data to require direct confirmation with the relevant platform or auction house rather than reliance on secondary press.
