Painting the future: NFTs and the new canvas for African artists
The way we create art reflects how we engage with the world around us. For many artists, creation is rooted in personal identity, cultural heritage, and lived experience.
With the rise of NFTs (non-fungible tokens), a new space for artistic and cultural storytelling has emerged. This space allows creators to present their art alongside the narratives and identities that shaped it.
The interrelation between NFTs and Copyright
NFTs (nonfungible tokens) are the hot topic of 2021 and will possibly remain so throughout this decade, due to their technical properties.
Understood as one of the generators of digital technical scarcity due to their nonfungible, NFTs are digital certificates or digital authenticity seals that grant ownership of an asset represented as an NFT verifiable via blockchain entry.
