About TRLab
TRLab is a curatorial digital-art platform that works with museums, artist estates and brands to issue one-of-one and limited-edition NFTs in primary sales. It runs the full path from digitising works and planning a release to online bidding and settlement; auctions use timed bidding with reserve prices, and after a sale the platform handles on-chain transfer and compliance checks, with part of the proceeds allocated to partner institutions under agreement.
Partners include the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Calder Foundation, Cai Guo-Qiang's studio and Vogue, and the product set spans releases, auctions and secondary-market services, with buyers drawn from traditional art collectors and brand clients. Unlike open marketplaces such as OpenSea it does not list unvetted work, trading curation and institutional endorsement for a premium. It also provides curation and issuance services to museums and brands, earning fees on sales and auctions, and the size and buyer mix of each release set the depth of its secondary market.
On January 23, 2026, TRLab launched the on-chain game 'Art Links' with the Metropolitan Museum of Art (on Base, with NFT badges). Later that year it released 'The Calder Question' NFT project with the Calder Foundation (autumn 2026), presenting an artist's legacy through interactive format.
Future strategy and roadmap: TRLab plans to deepen digital-collectible collaborations with museums and art institutions, expand interactive storytelling and community engagement on chains like Base, and keep exploring on-chain expression of art IP.
