Numerous visits to France since 1995 had a huge impact on Alexis Olin's art. Since then, painting, photography and music have become connected with all the projects to which he relates. On par with that, though, brushes with canvas and digital drawing with computer and tablet remain a priority.

The “Resident” Nephel portrait is the augmented membership NFT of the Nephel Club and the project, in a 50 edition. It invites the holders to live the train journey in the cabin with Nephel. The 3D portrait represents Nephel in black & white, as originally drawn by Alexis Olin. Even deeper than dreams, it is an invitation to deep-dive into the genesis of Nephel’s Dreams. By owning the NFT, the holders have, in addition to the benefits of the “Passenger” membership NFT, a 20% discount on Artos on future series of the Nephel’s Dream art collection. They have a right of representation over the NFT and are allowed by the artists, for personal use (e.g. profile picture) and to the exclusion of any end of monetisation, to broadcast it on the internet and social networks.
