We are SUNGRAZERS, a collaboration between award-winning aerial film-makers whose body of work spans over 25 years, Jerry and Sara Grayson, with musician Toby Dundas co-founder, composer and drummer of multi-award winning band THE TEMPER TRAP. Toby composes, arranges, mixes and plays all instruments in our original soundscapes. Our mission is to digitise and manipulate our body of aerial imagery for release as NFTs which, with the addition of unique scores, have the potential to change minds by changing perspectives. Our films have been played IRL at museums and galleries such as The Museum of Old and New Art, at the Sydney Opera House as part of Vivid Sydney, at The Museum of Art and Science in Valencia, Spain, at CALSCI in Los Angeles, at the British Film Institute in London, IMAX Melbourne, and on international stages since 2015 illustrating music by the seminal British band NEW ORDER. Toby’s band, The Temper Trap, have toured the world, appearing at Glastonbury, Coachella, Lollapalooza, SXSW and supporting The Rolling Stones. Toby’s music contributed to our IMAX film THE EARTH WINS,. In 2021 our NFTs exhibited in the world’s largest NFT exhibition STRATOSPHERE in Beijing and online, at Art Basel in Miami and Known Origin's digital gallery in London. Two of our pieces will play at TheOtherArtFair in Melbourne, NFTNYC and NFTLiverpool in 2022. Our two genesis pieces sold to fine art collectors, for whom we not only created the NFTs, but also high resolution 4k film files which they exhibit in the physical world in their homes, and a series of large format still photographs, they can print for their walls. Our NFT Collectibles series CANDY FLIGHT has sold over 100 times. We have a large collection of over 700 NFTs across multiple platforms and genres, and are loving collecting fellow artists' work.
