Hippo
Tom’s Cryptograph is a hand drawn depiction of the iconic Hippo image that adorns his famous ‘Arm The Homeless Guitar’ and that is also front and centre of his latest album ‘The Atlas Underground’. Tom often says that this Hippo drawing ‘is the only thing he can draw’ and that's often why it has become synonymous with his work. He also describes the Hippo as being an animal that has a huge amount of power and at the same time is beautiful, and this idea is something that Tom wants to put across in the music of his latest album. This Hippo artwork is Tom Morello’s first ever NFT and it is helping to raise funds to combat climate change and to support wildlife conservation.
