The Faces of Ethereum: A Collaborative Digital Art Project
We celebrate all the people building and growing the Ethereum ecosystem through our digital portrait gallery
As part of our continuous work to broaden perspectives and inclusivity within the blockchain ecosystem, we came up with the idea for the “Faces of Ethereum” portrait series . This idea is very simple: submit portraits of the people involved in building and growing the Ethereum ecosystem. The portraits can be anything from photos full of filters to oil paintings or GIFs.
Our aim is to collect, capture, and create a gallery featuring the portaits of all the people participating in our ecosystem. One of the main things we’ve realized while expanding the use of bounties to non tech verticals is that anyone can #BUIDL. It’s developers and designers, project managers, artists, musicians, students, environmental activists or people who may be going through homelessness right now.
Since launching the project at ETHDenver in collaboration with ArtProjectDecentralized, we’ve had 17 submissions and we want to continue receiving as many artworks as possible. We’d like the project to become a constant throughout 2019 so that at the end of the year a giant image made up of all the unique portraits collected can be unveiled and sold at auction — potentially at DevconV.
The plan is to take the funds from the auction and reserve 10% for social impact bounties and distribute the rest amongst all the people who submitted portraits to the project.
Bounties Network x Pixura
To collect and display all artworks, we were joined by Pixura in creating the Faces of Ethereum gallery. To celebrate their launch to Mainnet last month, we are tokenising all works and adding them to the gallery.
The Pixura platform lets anyone create and sell crypto/NFT collectibles in just a few minutes, without writing any code. For the first time, we have the ability to issue own-able digital items that can be globally traded and integrated with a multitude of apps. Full details of the Pixura flow can be found here.
The best “Faces of Ethereum” submissions will be tokenized as one of a kind NFT collectibles that can be bought, sold and traded by collectors. Once each piece is tokenized it will be sent to the original artist/creator’s wallet giving them ownership of the asset and the ability to set the list price.
Now go ahead, check out the bounty on Bounties Network and start sharing your work with us! Together we can create something truly special.
