About The Mushroom Wizard NFT Collection
Over the next several months, as part of the HumanNature Series, artist Martha Martin is developing a digital Collection entitled “The Mushroom Wizard.”
This Collection aims to highlight some of the ways mushrooms can contribute to our lives, while also raising awareness and funds for nonprofit organizations and the development of the HumanNature Series.
At first, The Mushroom Wizard will only be available in digital form on the blockchain, as NFTs. Then, based on the public’s response to the digital Collection, Martha will create a physical, hand-painted version of The Mushroom Wizard as part of the HumanNature Series, to be included in the upcoming exhibition.
How people are collecting, selling, propagating, and sharing their NFTs, as well as the media attention generated and funds raised for affiliated causes, will all be factors considered in choosing which digital Mushroom Wizard will be hand-painted and added to the physical collection.
What are NFTs?
According to Wikipedia, "A non-fungible token is a unique and non-interchangeable unit of data stored on a digital ledger. NFTs can be associated with easily-reproducible items such as photos, videos, audio, and other types of digital files as unique items, and use blockchain technology to give the NFT a public proof of ownership."
Why are People Buying NFT Artwork?
There are numerous reasons people are buying NFT art (here is a good list of 20), but in a nutshell, it’s an opportunity for people to buy and invest in art they like, in a hot, new, exciting, and growing market where their investment could increase exponentially, all while supporting the art, artist, and/or cause associated with it.
What are the aims of The Mushroom Wizard Collection?
Mushrooms can help us solve some of humanity's toughest challenges - from preserving land, oceans, wildlife, and waterways, to finding solutions for waste and pollution.
The aim of the Mushroom Wizard Collection is to raise awareness and funding for nonprofits that are working on these issues and more.
