What happens when you're kept apart for three years and then finally get the chance to meet with your homies? You get extra hyped, just like Batfan.
I had the opportunity to create the SXSW mascot to be released as a souvenir PFP (profile picture) NFT during the event.

The character was inspired by the feeling of excitement of seeing your friends and participating in a in-person event after such long time.
The items and backgrounds were inspired by Austin's landmarks such as the Congress Bridge (where you can see the bats flying under it), the Sixth Street, Texas State Capitol, etc

Special thanks to 0xA Technologies, Blockchain Creative Labs and the SXSW team.
Enjoy the quirky chaotic vibe!
