I’m excited to release my MIDDLE BEAUTY series as an NFT Collection on OpenSea. This is an opportunity for you to own a part of this collection that celebrates a region of immense beauty.
What is an NFT (Non-fungible token)? It’s a unique and secured digital certificate/signature that can be attached to an object, like cryptocurrency but in the form of art. In this instance, the NFT attached to an image from MIDDLE BEAUTY makes it unique and one of its kind. It’s like fine art collecting, only now with digital art.
Purchasing an NFT means you become the sole owner of the digital asset. The authenticity and value of the purchased crypto art mean you are supporting artists whilst potentially investing in NFT collectibles and subsequent return when the asset is sold and transferred to someone else.
Still confused about NFTs? Then check out this interview from OpenSea CEO.
To view and purchase my MIDDLE BEAUTY NFT Collection, head to OpenSea.
Thank you to Matt North, Eric Yip and Matt Horspool for your support and encouraging my NFT journey.
A collection of 15 photographs exploring the Middle East's unified beauty and challenges preconceived notions of this mysterious part of the world.
In MIDDLE BEAUTY photographer Ante Badzim explores the unified beauty of the Middle East and challenges preconceived notions of this mysterious part of the world.
Embarking on an adventure to the Middle East with somewhat clouded views of the region, this journey quickly evolved into one of great discovery.
Travelling from a centuries-old village in the mountains of Oman to the endless ochre deserts in Jordan. This exploration captured the unspoken beauty of towns, cities and the people that freckle the desert plains back to the mountain peaks.
Ante’s minimalist imagery intentionally creates space for reflection and to explore a region of immense beauty that deserves celebration.
