As the days countdown to The ARIval, the eagerness of the Ari Swap team to provide a memorable experience at our inaugural event in Barcelona increases more and more. Our team is working to ensure we gather the right talent and artistic richness for this prominent conference.

With that being said, we are happy to introduce you to three artists who come from different backgrounds, work with specific styles, and have a unique story to share. All of them will be adding diversity, engagement, and peculiarity to ARI NFT Marketplace.

Artists who make it happen

Wendii

Born in Lima, Peru, she has had a great love for arts, crafts, puzzles, gaming, and graphics since she was little. Through her years, she perfected her craft and impressed her grandparents who were the most supportive and the ones who recommended her to pursue her dream in the Art field. Nowadays, Wendii is a tattoo artist who loves creating and perfecting clients’ requests.

Inspired by the beauty of wonderful animals such as birds and her experiences with them, Wendii creates wonderful works of art to honor them. “When creating my First Class Party Bird collection I was very inspired by my parakeet James. It’s his little silhouette in different scenarios, wearing different outfits. There are plenty of ideas and virtual places I’d like to take him.”

Wendii believes that birds are the most beautiful creatures, she wants everyone to feel the same way and admire this animal. “I want to deliver something special to the bird lovers, the bird communities that a story to tell. The passionate breeders who have memorable experiences with these tiny lovable creatures.”

Arrachame

Arrachme is an internationally-recognized, fine contemporary abstract artist with paintings in museums worldwide. Her art is currently and consistently curated into exhibitions with humanitarian, environmental, and social impact themes. She is accomplished in the mastery of unlocking simplification sequences to create a visual balance between genres.

As stated by Arrachme “My paintings do not just reflect emotion, but express a solid foundation of the intentions in life that are the catalyst of that spark emotion. The mission is to gently bring questions. This stems from knowing that every choice sets a series of reactions that alter reality. It is my belief that one can seed a positive perceived reality with visual language.”

Furthermore, her collection will bring some astonishing paintings, one influenced by experiences in Florence and expressions of emotion, the other about the epic experiences that we look back on, that completely transformed us and changed the direction we take in life, and finally, the images emerging from abstract expressions coming alive to express emotions.

Yuval

Born in 1961 in Tel Aviv, Israel, his works are marvelous creations from a vast variety of media and subject matters. For instance, wood carvings, paintings, large moving installations, bronze sculptures, 3D life-size works, and even taxidermy.

His collection will be extraordinary since he will showcase pieces of distinct mediums that will engage people with several levels of interest. We were lucky enough that he shared with us some of his insights: “I am working around the term “The New Masculine”. The term carries me out throughout this life, artistically, personally, and in all areas of life. The delicate conflict between the appearance of “masculine” strength, acts of bravery, of risk, even war and the deep solitude and angst this carries with it. You can sense this in every single one of my works. I’m constantly pushing for new directions in my art, looking for the best professional to help me carry out my idea, and looking for a new stage to play on and present upon. I’m excited to enter the web3 atmosphere and bring the values and curiosity that led my art until now.”
