What is a NFT?
An NFT, or non-fungible token, is a unique digital representation of a piece of an artist’s work. Its primary purpose is purely symbolic: they don’t actually sell their art – they sell symbolic ownership to their art.
NFTs are popular nowadays for digital artists who don’t have the asset of scarcity physical artists may have. Since they cannot sell an “original” physical artwork, instead they can sell a symbolic, unique representation of that artwork.
That unique representation is “minted” (= created), on a “blockchain”, which is a sort of large database shared by multiple computers across the world. Because of the way it is built, that database can never be deleted, meaning their artwork will live forever as an NFT once it is minted.
Buying a NFT
There are two types of NFTs you can purchase at Faerian:
Full-size NFTs
and Pocket-size NFTs.
Pocket-size NFTs
The next Pocket-size NFT collection will launch on February 8th.
The NFTs present a square format of the artworks from the collection #1 on the theme of “Light”, minted on Ethereum, with prices ranging from $30-$200, giving access to various utilities such as gift cards, pre-mint access to future collections, raffles with prizes, and more.
6 human artists, 22 artworks (digital & traditional), 999 NFTs editions.
You become a “Wanderer” of Faerian.
Tutorial about how to mint a Pocket-size NFT to be announced soon. We’ll use Opensea/Manifold.
Full-size NFTs
You may also be interested with the full-size artworks. They’re available in 1/1 editions on the Solana & Flow blockchains, as digital and physical NFTs.
On top of a high-quality image file you’ll find nowhere else, they grant you the “Guardian” of Faerian benefits, such a voting right on the next collections and future art contests (next one coming: March 2023)
Digital NFT
A Solana NFT gives you access to a licensed high-quality image file of the artwork, along with exclusive perks from the artist (for example: free art commission, 1-1 interview…)
Physical NFT
A Flow NFT via Kreatr.co gives you access to a limited edition, real-life museum-quality print of the artwork, shipped directly at your doorstep.
If you need help to understand how to buy them with just your credit credit card, we prepared awesome tutorials for you below, at the end of the page.
Both NFTs allow you to become a “Guardian” of Faerian. It means you can belong to a close community with other Guardians and getting special voting rights in the gallery, as well as:
Access to a private Discord channel
The opportunity to participate in the jury for different Art contests organized by Faerian
The opportunity to give your opinion on the next collections in advance
Access to VIP online and offline events
